Good people abound!
We were barely 100 miles from home, headed to FL, when a nice man in an SUV pulled up alongside us, and over the sounds of the highway, yelled that our turn and brake lights weren't working on the 5th...

I am glad it worked out for you. Now, remember the good hearted man that let you know of the problem and try to help someone out that way some day. That's what I try to do.
I also check the taillights on my trailer every time I hook up. I just turn on the emergency flasher and walk behind the trailer to make sure they are working.
I also check the lights every time I hook up. I do it by turning on the flasher and the parking lights in the TV. That way bth filaments in the taillights are lit up as well as the markers.
I also always have the headlights on while towing. Having the markers visible on in the mirrors is a good indicator that the cable has not somehow become detached from the truck. (had that happen once - no lights and no brakes.)
