Listen to the above very good advice
Not an absolute...it depends....
15 MPH could be too much...10 MPH could be too much...it depends...even 60 MPH MIGHT BE OKAY...it depends...
How many sq inches to your trailer side ?
How good a sail area is your trailer side profile? Rounded edges much better than squared edges in regards to wind issues...
How fast are you going to be at ?
Sustained wind or gusts ?
Square to your trailer side or oblique ?
Semi's weighing in the 80,000 range has been blown over...I've seen them the next day as I drove by them...asked the patrolman and he said that they were all were STOPPED on the side of the road when they were blown over...
Laws of physics kind of stuff.....that we "ALL" face...regardless whether believe in these laws or not...
