Trailer TowingStandalone practice
What is trailer off-tracking?
An east-facing blue pickup and silver cargo trailer are aligned within the lawful left-turn lane before a clear intersection. No future path is highlighted.
Correct answer: The trailer’s wheels follow a path inside the tow vehicle’s path during a turn
Why
During a turn, the trailer wheels track inside the tow vehicle’s path. Allow for that inward path and the entire trailer body when judging clearance from curbs, poles and other road users.
