Yep.........
When I was a younger man and attempted to tow a 20' trailer on a bumper ball hitch with a mini van.
Every time I got above 50 mph trailer would start wagging.
It was a very long long white knuckle drive....both ways. That's right....was bound to go camping. The old saying ..Young Dumb etc.
Got it back home without incident....not because I was so good :S Blessed!
Now I might have been Young Dumb BUT wasn't STUPID
Next camping trip (and every one since) proper tow vehicle, proper WDH and proper set up (tongue weight/trailer loading/WDH set up correctly) PLUS I learned how to properly tow, what to do and more importantly what not to do when situation(s) arise.
In the video operator had a proper tow vehicle......but that's seems to be it.
Nothing else was correct.....set up/towing and or drivers ability/knowledge.
