People, just because you can pull it doesn't mean you should. This is ridiculous to think that little Nissan is going to pull that trailer. No weight distribution, nothing.

Yea he has got to be over capacity and with no WD, wow... I have seen something similar just east of Portland on I-84. Was strange, that guy had a WD receiver ,a Chev 2500 and only like a 25ft. trailer so I don't know what happened with that one.

Y'all have got some excellent eyes, can't make out what the hitch looks like from the pic.

The other thing, y'all are making assessments and have no information. Perhaps that trailer is too heavy, and perhaps it isn't. There is no way to determine that and the pic doesn't provide it.

Lastly, as BIGGYNINER has pointed out, even one of the "almighty" 3/4 ton trucks can have "mishaps" happen.

Y'all are drawing conclusions based on supposition.

Probably "Texting" too.

Thank goodness for insurance. Now maybe he'll get a real set-up.

Driver was probably doing 75-80 mph as well... My last trip on US-131, I lost count of how many jack-holes towing trailers and 5'ers passed my rig like I was standing still while traveling 60-65 mph.

If he engaged the front end, maybe he could pull it off the road.
