Crosswinds and air turbulence
caused by passing trucks can disrupt
your steering and cause the trailer to
sway. When being passed by a large
vehicle, keep a constant speed, and
steer straight ahead. Do not try to
make quick steering or braking
corrections.
Always drive slowly and have
someone guide you when backing up.
Grip the
of the steering
wheel; then turn the wheel to the left
to get the trailer to move to the left,
and turn the wheel right to move the
trailer to the right.
Drive slower than normal in all
driving situations, and obey posted
speed limits for vehicles with trailers.
If your vehicle has an automatic
transmission, use the D position
when towing a trailer on level roads.
D is the proper shift lever position
to use when towing a trailer in hilly
terrain.
Do not exceed the limited speed
when towing a trailer. At higher
speeds, the trailer may sway or
affect vehicle handling (see ‘‘
’’ in the next page for
additional gear information).
The added weight, length, and
height of a trailer will affect your
vehicle’s handling and performance,
so driving with a trailer requires
some special driving skills and
techniques.
For your safety and the safety of
others, take time to practice driving
manoeuvre before heading for the
open road, and follow the guidelines
below.
