place wheel chocks at each of the
trailer’s tires.
Always drive slowly and have

Crosswinds and air turbulence
caused by passing trucks can disrupt
your steering and cause trailer
swaying. 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.
When driving down hills, reduce
your speed and shift down to 3rd
gear on the manual transmission,
and turn off the overdrive (O/D)
mode on the automatic transmission.
Do not ‘ride’’ the brakes, and
remember, it will take longer to slow
