Please?? Use wheel chocks on your trailer wheels when loading and unloading. I know of two instances that the trailer tongue lifted the weight off the rear tires of the truck, enough that the truck and trailer began coasting away. Once when I had my neighbors daughter's wrecked Mustang being loaded onto a trailer behind my pick up, by a wrecker. Facing downhill on a gravel driveway, my truck started sliding, and once it started, it just kept going, until it jackknifed, and bent the tongue on the trailer. Another when one of our linemen didn't want to wait for an equipment operator. He decided to load the backhoe, on an equipment trailer, behind a single axle 7 yard dump.

It finally jackknifed into a side hill. No real damage, except for his bruised ego.
