Other than the front wheels off the ground, everything else is MAINTENANCE related... not SAFETY related.
Inadequate brakes are not a SAFETY issue? Since when? A lot of the old trailers did not have brakes and those that did were troublesome. Give me today's rigs any time.
Define inadequate. All those rigs stopped, didn't they? You weren't able to provide me with pages and pages of stories about fatal car crashes because those cars weren't able to stop, were you?
Safety... it means that people were injured or killed. Somehow the vast majority of all those rigs made it to their destination and back safely. Must have been millions of miracles I guess...
