    In my opinion if it was truly about SAFETY and not just MONEY they would not have the new 2 year stickers. A whole lot can go wrong with any vehicle or trailer in 2 years time. It is just another money maker for a broke state. ENFORCEMENT is the real issue here. Most people area not aware of the weight ratings of their receiver hitch. Most all class 3 receiver hitches are only rated for 6000 lbs. Lets say you hook to your 16' trailer to go get your buddys chevy of the side of the road. The trailer is in the neighborhood of 2000 lbs and the silverado is near 6000 lbs. Thats 8000 lbs. you just exceeded your hitchs capacity by 33%. In the hands of a crafty lawyer, you just lost everything you own if you cause an accident.

    I bet most of you have this same one. Reese Hitch

    It is not about money....IT IS ABOUT SAVING LIVES.....SHE LOST HER CHILD IN carencro louisiana

    The death of my daughter Makayla Bruno still haunts me to this day. The pain of losing a child never goes away. There are far too many deaths and injuries caused by runaway trailers. We, the undersigned, are asking our state and federal safety officials to get a grasp on this very serious safety hazard. We do not want to lose one more loved one by these tragic accidents.

    This CHILD OF GOD IS NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO HAS SUFFERED!

    Every one of you....better look at our newest tire safety book...its free...all of you have tires that look like the ones I took pictures of...and all of you are putting others behind you at risk...because all of you are cheap and do not want to maintain your crappy trailer...http://www.dangeroustrailers.org/upl..._A_Guide.pdfso

    so some of you are going to ban me from this forum because I am telling the truth....if you do..then you are no better than the IRS WHO BANS PATRIOTS FROM SAVING OUR COUNTRY.

    Look people...I am rajun Cajun....and these types of accidents when a loose trailer is destroying property and lives are happening more and more.....see what happened a few days ago...EVEN A POWER COMPANY CAN'T KEEP ITS TRAILERS SAFER...WAKE UP PEOPLE...SAFETY CHAINS DO NOT WORK..AND START FIRES WHEN YOU ALLOW THEM TO DRAG ON THE GROUND....AND WE QUOTE..

    Erica Hills---61 Killed by--loose trailer..." The brakes on the trailer were "in inoperable, and/or in an unsafe condition," the lawsuit asserts. "Corrosion permeated the trailer and component parts critical to maintaining a secure connection to the truck; a required safety pin and/or chain necessary to prevent separation of the truck/trailer combination was missing, non-operational or simply not installed.

    Dangerous Trailers.org Presents How To Steal A Utility Trailer - YouTube how to steal a trailer

    VA Helps Stolen Trailers Virginia DOT will help you register your stolen trailer

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0GaV5h3y6c we are featured at 2.20 minutes in broadcast.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QbfXOOQI0Ws A power company that is going to get sued big time....THE FEDERAL MOTOR CARRIER DIVISION IS GOING TO FINE them... then lawyers are going to sue....just like they will sue you when your trailer comes loose and destroys property and lives then you are going to wake up and say....

    maybe Ron Melancon was right....that crazy cajun man.


    So go ahead and have your trailer stolen....don't tell us we did not warn you. ...9 states have no registration for your stolen trailer...



    Melancon's safety campaign has earned mentions in newspapers across the country, from USA Today to the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. He's fought a one-man battle, almost bereft of funding, but he's made his mark.
    Largely because of his lobbying, Virginia now requires reflective tape on all trailer backs. (California requires one taillight on even the smallest trailers.) He persuaded Lowe's stores to attach reflectors to the trailers they sell. Arizona officials contacted him recently to consult on trailer safety. That, however, is only a part of his concern. He says the registration process needs to be tightened. Vehicle identification numbers, which are glued rather engraved onto trailer frames, are so easily replaced that theft and fraud are commonplace.
    One popular scam is to buy a manufactured trailer, insure it, then remove the VIN and report it as stolen. Re-branding it as a homemade trailer with a new license plate can be as simple as filing bogus paperwork with another state.
    Melancon did this recently to prove his point. He applied from Virginia for a Maine trailer license with a fabricated VIN (ST467OL499EN17I99AM). For a $50 fee, he received his license plate in the mail with official documentation. Apparently no one noticed the message hidden in the VIN if you remove the numbers: STOLEN I AM.

    What are you going to say to the higher power when it happens to your family? Each and every one of you who knowingly tows a defective trailer will one day have to answer to the higher power.

    I just got my 2 year inspection at Terrys in Gonzales. I would rather spend 20 bucks than 165.00 for a ticket.
