Seen that before.I would hate to tow a trailer with a car on it.What causes trailers to do this.

1.9 xr2 on 40's

i had similar with my mk1 xr2 behind a granada
the dude driving (i was 16) was gonna brake so i told him to accelerate out of it, we were doin about 90 by the time it calmed down on the acle straight (dead straight road)

im 32 next mth and still have the xr2 but my aunty got rid of the dude

im just wondering if anyone has any ideas why it started to snaked, under weight towing vehicle maybe or over weight load or wrong type of trailer or bed of trailer too high

Trailer too high for the car? I've towed a car trailer with an l200 before which was slightly higher than standard and it used to start snaking, not as bad as that, but regulary snqaking on a 180 mile trip. Towed same trailer with my long wheelbase transit (k reg) and not a murmur even at 90mph.

could also have been incorectly loaded (too far forward or back), no stabilizer, trailer in poor condition.

if the tow car had been heavier than the trailer and load though it wouldn't have got that bad.

The only time I have had a trailer snake is when the car on the trailer was on the wrong way and to far to the rear.

I think the speed they are going must play a factor. Look how quick them white lines are zipping past.

Dunno about it being the scariest accident ever.. possibly one of the most annoying.. but not scariest.

Still, that would annoy me.
