8 Load cargo on the carrier as close to the cen-
ter of the vehicle as possible. Put cargo at the
front of the rear carrier. Center the load from
side to side.
8 Tie down cargo securely to the carrier. Make
sure cargo in the trailer cannot move around.
A shifting load can cause an accident.
8 Make sure the load does not interfere with
controls or your ability to see where you are
going.
8 Ride more slowly than you would without a
load. The more weight you carry, the slower
you should go. Although conditions vary, it is
good practice not to exceed 2nd gear when-
ever you are carrying heavier loads or when
towing a trailer.
8 Allow more braking distance. A heavier vehi-
cle takes longer to stop.
