Accident rates
Which are involved in more accidents motor homes or 5th wheels / travel trailers and could the weak link be brake systems??

It depends WHERE you live and travel. I've been snowbirding for several years and then full time. I travel the 'commonly used snowbird routes'.
More commonly used roads by RV's so of course the more heavily the concentration of RV's. Just take a spin on I75 during the coming and going of the snowbirds sometime and watch the carnage!
So that is why I've seen SO many, where others who live in different parts of the US may never see one.
I also haul horses. With a truck and the MH.
You won't see THOSE TT's flipped over or jacknifed.
First of all they carry precious cargo and those that don't know how to tow, 'hire' people to do it!
They don't just jump in hook up not knowing how to tow like a newbie RV person will. :W
