VW Passat Loses Trailer in Russia

Whenever you are towing something behind your car, it’s crucial to make sure that the trailer is firmly attached to the towing hitch, otherwise you may end up losing along the way. The driver of this Volkswagen Passat has clearly not done everything by the book, and his trailer (some sort of hydraulic swing arm) gets loose and ends up crashing into another car.
Imagine the surprise on both drivers’ faces, when the rather unfortunate event occurred. Now, it is of course the fault of the Passat driver, who was lucky he didn’t lose the trailer while driving at higher speed, otherwise the damage would have been a whole lot greater.

Next time you hitch something to the back of your vehicle, double and triple check everything, just to keep things safe. A few minutes of extra preparation and attention will save you a lot of eventual hassle.
