Walked out the front door last night with tea in hand just to be outside for a few.A large vehicle slowly goes buy the house with 30 foot trailer or so in tow (camping type).and down the road proceeds to climb a fairly step hill .Next I hear a god awful screech and when I look here comes a trailer going backwards down the hill ,makes a sharp turn across 3 lanes and comes to stop on some poor smucks lawn.WOW.Wish I had pictures ,that was scary .Called cops right away and all was fixed up in record time but it could of ended badly if it had of happed at shift change around 5 or 6 pm.

I wonder if it was being stolen? happens a lot. campers get hooked to hitch, then safety chains then the little safety catch to set the brakes if it comes off the hitch......unless you're stealing it then it gets slammed onto a hitch that is technically too small and you run with it.
