2.Don’t underestimate the difficulty of driving with a trailer. Before driving in heavy traffic with a trailer, you should practice pulling in and out of your driveway and navigating quiet back roads. 

3.The trailer size is related to the number of adjustments. A small utility trailer may not affect. But when pulling a boat or large RV etc, it will need all your attention and driving skills. 

4.Ensure that the trailer is properly connected before running on the road. Check the safety chains, lights, and license plate.

5.Keep a proper distance between your vehicle and the vehicle in front of you when hauling a trailer. The added weight will increase the risk of slowing down or stopping. 

6.Take wider turns. Because your vehicle’s length is close to double the regular length, you will have to take turns much wider to avoid hitting other cars, or running off of the road.

7.Driving in reverse while pulling a trailer is a skill that takes quite a bit of practice to acquire. 

8.Take it slowly. It is often best to drive in the right lane while pulling a trailer, especially on the interstate. Acceleration will take significantly longer with a trailer. Drive a little below the speed limit for safety. 

9.Parking may be difficult. Small parking lots may be almost impossible to use when pulling a large trailer. If you do maneuver your vehicle and trailer into a parking space, or several parking spaces, make sure that you have plenty of room to exit the lot. It is often advisable to park in a remote part of a parking lot with few surrounding vehicles.
