WHEN TRAVELING: HIGHLIGHTS
Riding in a Travel Trailer
When underway, do not allow passengers (perhaps pets too) to ride in the travel trailer as
there are no safety belts. In addition, passengers riding in a travel trailer may be prohibited by
state law.
Tires
Properly maintained tires improve steering, stopping, traction and load-carrying capability.
Under inflated tires and overloading can cause tire failure.
Towing and Weight Distribution
Prior to towing any vehicle, check the limits and use of suitable tow vehicles. Even weight
distribution is essential to safe towing of the travel trailer.
Sway or Fishtailing
Sway or fishtailing is when the trailer is moving side to side that could be caused by road
conditions, weather or another matter. Excessive sway can cause the trailer to rollover which
may include the vehicle towing the trailer resulting in serious injury or death.
This manual includes many additional warnings, recommendations, and guides to safe
operation of your RV. You are strongly encouraged to become familiar with all of them.
