When to return to lane after passing.
I have towed many different trailers in the past. But, my current trailer seems to be the hardest. When I passed a slower vehicle on interstate, I was not sure if I was cleared and had enough distance...

What is the best way to be sure that it is safe to return to the lane when towing a trailer. Would a rear camera on the TT help?
1. get bigger mirrors that are attached sufficiently to prevent any visual vibrations while you are driving.
2. buy some larger mirrors like the ones you see on Dodge and Ford trucks, that are permanently mounted to your truck that flip up when you are towing.
3. When passing truckers, turn your turn signal on and wait until the trucker flashes his lights. Do the same for truckers with they are trying to get merge onto the road.
4. Use your CB radio to talk with the trucker and ask him if you are clear. When the trucker passes you, flash your high beams to signal him it is safe to pull back in front of you.
