I was driving yesterday on Route 476 South when traffic slowed quickly. Upon rounding the down hill bend, this is what I came up on. It appears as though it's a Toyota 4Runner which was towing a dual axle travel trailer. I estimate the trailer trailer to be over 20' long. I looked up some dry weights of these trailers and they are 4000 lbs and up. Towing capacity on a 2011 4Runner states 5000 lbs. Who knows what year that vehicle was? The trailer was on its side and it slid for approximately 200'. You can see how the SUV was jacked up in the air being supported by the hitch. It just amazes me how the manufacturer inflates their capacities? One good cross wind can really cause a white knuckle ride in a split second.
