They also have the nic name of "Wiggle Wagons" because the last trailer usually sways (wiggles) back & forth. I've seen them overturned due to this in dry good sunny weather on good roads. <br />Seen many of the drivers "Circle the Wagons" in the ditch/roadway durring snow storms too! <br />The heavier of the two or more trailers should be hooked to the truck tractor. If the heavier of the 2 etc. were to be placed at the back, Durring braking or rounding a down hill curve you'd stand a high chance of the rear trailer(s) pushing the lead trailer(s) out of line thus wrecking. It's like an accordian affect!
