Absolutely true. And make sure you check everything
including the lug nuts every time you use the trailer .
People who hook up and go without inspecting their lights, brakes, bearing lube, lug nuts and tie-downs are the same people who
(a) launch their boats onto the asphalt,
(b) can't change their flat trailer tire 'cuz the lugs are frozen,
(c) weld their bearings to their spindles for lack of lubricant, or
(d) get back-ended cause they gave no indication of stopping or turning due to a lack of functioning trailer lights.
Disney coined a name for idiots like that back in 1970 -
