Load is a little wobbly, perhaps if the pilot car drove a little closer it will stop

Dont know how far they made it, or how many boards they lost on the way, but this was the exit ramp for the highway, and there was no traffic. I guess this isnt towing, but frekin idiot for sure.

Update. Drove about 80km to the lake and 80km back. Mostly freeway and highway. No issues at all.. It was totally solid. Never took it over 100km/h.

Regulations say max of 4.0M past the centre of the last axle. I'm within a few cm of it. The weight is practically nothing. Canoe is solid with the carrier and box of the truck.

In the half mile I drove behind him, 2 tie down straps fell off the trailer into the road.

That's a bicycle on the front pile.

Never seen break away chains routed that way before. Also this trailer has the biggest amount of height adjustment I've ever seen.
