10-4. Appreciate that. And I have a letter prepared to send to the shipper and the trailer manufacturer. Only in the spirit of calling attention to a situation or condition that creates a significant hazard to motorists.
I haven't said this yet, and this is for all readers and responders to this thread, but I hit Albuquerque that morning after some of the worst roads I've driven on--and I literally saw bouncing and swaying trailers in my side mirrors. It was a WTF, pucker-factor, emergency stop kind of situation. I can't explain what happened and can't understand it just like a number of folks on here have also expressed. But it did. Bigger than ####. I'll let the engineers figure out what went wrong.
Why? Because I'm glad to be making an inquiry like this NOW, instead of having had to watch one after legal actions leading to inquiries or investigations because I had damaged property or hurt or killed someone on the highway. I'm #### lucky I didn't lose those trailers off of mine that morning in the middle of Albuquerque's rush hour beltway traffic.
