Two 5s do not equal ten.
Safety chains are important.
I was driving a dark road one rainy night and a truck coming the other way was towing a large generator. His trailer hitch ball broke and there were apparently no safety chains. The whole rig came at me end over end. I missed it but was shaken by the experience. The guy said "the hitch broke, there was nothing I could do." You could have safety chains dicknose.
