I had a 20 ft trailer years ago. Ive towed boats from 12 foot to 28 ft.
I HATE TOWING ..... just never got comfortable with it.
With that said, Ive been watching youtube videos, where the trailer starts fishtailing and eventually crashes.
Sometimes just into a ditch or into another car or flips over including the car/truck.
The trailer is trying to pass the car/truck which causes the problem ( so im told)
I always had electric brakes and have a brake controller on my MH.
Because this is the newbie page, I just wonder how many of you know how to stop a fishtailing trailer?
Its very easy, BUT instinctively people do the complete opposite...
Go watch some of the videos its quite scary.... and I'm sure some here will have some interesting stories.
OH why didnt I tell you how to recover???? I dont want to be responsible should you happen to do it wrong.
