I've seen campers catch air on the 89 here in ArizonaCan you imagine going south on I95 in the back of a camper? It would literally beat you unconscious...

In some states (like MN) it is not illegal to ride in a trailer, New York (from what I could find) you can ride in a 5th wheel trailer. But no way would I do it.
I recall reading years ago that braking makes it worse. Coasting, if I remember correctly is the way out of itThis follows
In this video wouldnt it help to slow down? Do these guys think they can “pull out of it?”
Very gentle taps on the trailer brakes only. And immediatly... It can get out of control very quickly, as you see in the video. And yes, once control is regained, SLOW DOWN!I recall reading years ago that braking makes it worse. Coasting, if I remember correctly is the way out of it

Note the speed that you were going as something to never do in the future. Every rig has its particular Vne.once control is regained, SLOW DOWN!
To be totally honest, when pulling my camper I rarely go above 60, Im too cheap (ga$). Also, no reason to be hard on equipment.Note the speed that you were going as something to never do in the future. Every rig has its particular Vne.
Biggest help is to have the trailer loaded properly to start with, and have a good hitch set up. I am amazed how unstable those trailers were to start with such small oscillations and just get progressively worse? If nothing else, atleast make sure you've got some tongue weight. Also I guess just like cars, having a lower centre of gravity helps with stability?This follows
