20 years ago I moved from Texas back home to Oregon. I drove a big UHaul van and towed my car on a UHaul trailer. When I went to return the van/car trailer in Oregon City I went over some train tracks and up a steep hill that was at a very sharp angle to the tracks. 4 blocks after that hill some guy came running out of a gas station flagging me down. The trailer hitch had come off the ball. I had no clue. The guy helped me put the trailer back on the ball and off I drove. Not a scratch on the trailer, van or anything else.
