A Trailer Is Most Likely To Jackknife When It Is

You may fear that the driver will lose control or that their trailer will swing into your lane, especially when there are heavy rains or winds. There is a potential for jackknife accidents to occur when the conditions are right, and those accidents could be devastating to many victims on the roadway. They occur more often in slippery or slick. Unladen, there is no load bearing down on the tyres, and under heavy braking the trailer wheels can lock or slide across the road surface, making the trailer more difficult to stop.
