Travel Trailer receiver hitch hook up
No I do not think this looks safe. But, it is funny.

That's a drop hitch installed on a step bumper, and if loads are within ratings there is nothing wrong with it. It could have been installed to tow some piece of equipment 500 pounds or lighter. Last step bumper I had, on a compact pickup, was rated for 2500 pounds tow, 400 tongue weight, and it hauled equipment around on the ranch.
Not everybody with a hitch tows a travel trailer. Not everybody towing a travel trailer is towing a 8000 pound travel trailer. You'd probably think the EU standard hitch used for RV towing looks unsafe, and probably think the same about the compact to mid-size sedans used for towing.
Somehow you think it is OK to mount a hitch with one bolt? Do you think that it will stay straight?
Never, never drive close to any trailer.
