Safety on the road
Many factors can affect your safety and that of others on the road.
As stated in the chapter on non-liability for the towing vehicle, your towing vehicle’s towing
capacity is a decisive factor. Maintenance of your towing vehicle (as recommended by the
vehicle’s manufacturer) is also very important.
You alone are responsible for yourtowing vehicle.
Other factors must also be considered to ensure optimal safety.
• Towing weight limit and distribution
• Hitch safety
• Swayeffect
• Tire maintenance
• Brake maintenance
Remember that the emergency exit window is at greater risk of breaking
if improperly used.
It is better to use the other windows to ventilate your trailer, to avoid the
risks of damage and premature wear to the emergency exit window.
If you have opened the emergency exit window, ensure that you close it
again before going on the road, so it does not fall out while in transit.
