Towing a Trailer
Additional Towing Equipment
Many states and Canadian
provinces/territories require special
outside mirrors when towing a trailer.
Even if they don't, you should install
special mirrors if you cannot clearly
see behind you, or if the trailer
creates a blind spot.
Ask your trailer sales or rental
agency if any other items are
recommended or required for your
towing situation.
