A few months back I was driving behind a truck and trailer. All of a sudden he started losing control. He was taking both lanes, on a busy blacktop road. I slowed way down and drove on the shoulder, so that the vehicles behind me could see what was going on. The kid got it stopped. My brother and I stopped to see if he needed help. I thought the trailer had came loose. It hadn't , It was a tilt trailer that had tilted going 55 mph. Talk about a kite in a tornado. The Kid was hauling the trailer for his dad. The dad had just bought it. I looked at the lock down on the trailer. It was rusted up and would not work. I ask him if he had a ratchet strap. He did, so he started to strap the bed down with it. The way he was running the strap, it would have been cut by the metal. I told him how to route it, so it would not get cut. I told him to drive slow. I did commend him on keeping the trailer out of the ditches. Also check the tilt locks /latches...MTP
