How blind are people?

[UncleWillie]

I tow a trailer almost every day of the year just about. And about twice a year my trailer gets hit. Normally it gets hit while I'm at a gas station or in a parking lot somewhere. Once I had a woman can opener the entire side of her car on the end of my trailer while I was pumping gas. She rolled her window down and asked me what she hit like the 30 foot trailer wasn't plainly visible.

Yesterday I was making a left hand turn into a road, and the guy behind me slammed into the trailer while I was turning. Fortunately for him I was pulling my very low tilt trailer instead of the taller one, and rather than ripping the suspension off of his truck he simply ripped the sidewall off his tire, the trailer tilted and he went over the top of it.

But really how hard is it to see a trailer?

Folks driving these days are interested in everything other than paying attention.

I'm not answering because I pull a trailer every day and its been a few years since I've been hit. lol
