How far do you have to backtrack to get the batteries? I'd be sweating a drive without a battery hooked up. It would be my luck that the trailer came off and no battery for emergency braking.

If your trailer is heavy enough to require brakes then you MUST have a WORKING EMERGENCY BREAKAWAY SYSTEM.
The breakaway system IS POWERED BY THE TRAILER BATTERY and will not function if the trailer breaks away and the electrical connection is severed.
Go back home and grab your battery, be safe and do the right thing.
