Towing Information
Driving a vehicle/trailer combination is different from driving a vehicle alone.
Inspect all connections at each stop.
All tires must be properly inflated. Do not overinflate the tires. Tire pressures go up during driving. Checking the tire pressure when the tires are warm will give you an inaccurate pressure reading.
Increase the distance between your vehicle and the vehicle in front of you to twice the normal following distance when towing a trailer. Allow more following distance in adverse weather.
Slow down for downgrades and shift your transmission into a lower gear.
Slow down for curves, hazardous road conditions, freeway exits, and when driving in adverse weather.
Heavy winds, excessive speed, load shifting or passing vehicles can cause a trailer to sway while driving. If this occurs, do not brake, speed up or turn the steering wheel. Turning the steering wheel or applying the brakes can cause the vehicle and trailer to jackknife. Let up on the gas pedal and keep the steering wheel straight.
If the vehicle and/or trailer travels off the paved road, hold the steering wheel firmly and let up on the gas pedal. Do not apply the brakes. Do not turn sharply. Slow down to under 25 mph / 40 km/h. Gradually turn the steering wheel to get back on the road. Proceed with caution when entering traffic.
When passing other vehicles, be sure to leave enough room for the extra length of the trailer. You will need to go much farther beyond the passed vehicle before you can return to your lane.
Avoid sudden movements when turning.
