Towing a Trailer

Handling Crosswinds and Buffeting

Crosswinds and air turbulence

caused by passing trucks can disrupt

your steering and cause trailer

swaying. When being passed by a

large vehicle, keep a constant speed

and steer straight ahead. Do not try

to make quick steering or braking

corrections.

Backing Up

Always drive slowly and have

someone guide you when backing up.

Grip the bottom of the steering

wheel; then turn the wheel to the left

to get the trailer to move to the left,

and turn the wheel right to move the

trailer to the right.

Parking

Follow all normal precautions when

parking, including firmly setting the

parking brake and putting the

transmission in Park (automatic) or

in 1st or Reverse (manual). Also,

place wheel chocks at each of the

trailer's tires.
