ON CERTAIN CARGO/TRAVEL TRAILERS, THERE IS A POSSIBILITY OF OVERLOADING IN THE REAR CARGO AREA. TOO MUCH WEIGHT INCORRECTLY POSITIONED IN THIS AREA CAN RESULT IN A LIGHT HITCH WEIGHT AND AFFECT STABILITY. DEPENDING ON THE SPECIFIC TOW VEHICLE AND ITS HITCH EQUIPMENT, A SUFFICIENTLY LIGHT HITCH WEIGHT CAN RESULT IN SWAY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THIS COULD CAUSE A CRASH INVOLVING THE TRAILER AND TOW VEHICLE.
