Did I miss the memo or something about safety chains? For 30 years, I have always crossed my safety chains to provide a basket for the tongue in the horrific event the coupler comes loose of the ball....
While it may be the law in some states, my opinion has always been that in the event of a hitch failure I want to get away from the trailer not be tethered to it. I use the chains but don't believe in them.
