Controlling sway

Comment:

I've had this trailer for 3 years and I've never taken it anywhere.  There is a sway bar system, but this video says that's no guarantee.  

It has to be perfectly set up.

Argh.







Here's another video which demonstrates conclusively that weight distribution is critical in controlling sway.

Moral:  don't put a lot of weight on the back.  Maybe a good idea to drive slowly too.  This crash involved a car passing a big rig.  The wind probably caught it and cause the big sway that caused a loss of control.
