Depends on where they have you drop the trailer, they may have you drop it at a dock. Right hand turns are almost always the hardest, especially if you don't prepare for it.
Myoneload Thanks this. -
CertifiedSweetie and Myoneload Thank this. -
You may have to dock it you may not have to depends on the situation. And the hardes turn to make is the one you've missed of course . In all seriousness it doesn't matter right or left. I've seen some left turns that were worse than right turns but typcially speaking turning right is probably the hardest turn to make.
Myoneload Thanks this. -
Not to echo what everyone else said but yeah, it all depends. Just remember, if you're dropping at the dock open the doors!
The hardest turns for me are any turn on a tight street. Master your button hook for right turns. Dont let traffic get you flustered. If theres a car in your way stop and wait. They'll move!! Dont get yourself in a jam because you're trying to get out of the way of a car!!Myoneload and NavigatorWife Thank this. -
Thank you all so much. This is the BEST site I have seen for asking any question..

Hardest turn... Right off of Bruckner Blvd onto Leggett Ave bridge on the way into Hunts Point!
