Making Roadways Safer One Trailer at a Time

We’re gearing up for the fifth annual National Trailer Safety Week to be held June 2-8, 2024! By participating in this safety campaign, we hope to improve the safety of the nation’s roadways by raising trailer safety awareness through education of end-users, dealers, and manufacturers on safe trailering practices. The goal is to close the communication gap between trailer manufacturers and end-users to make towing safer.

Safe trailering practices save lives, and with millions of trailers—used by businesses, local governments, and individuals—traversing the nation’s roadways every day, it is crucial to ensure that trailers are being towed safely for the sake of everyone on the roads. End-users are vastly undereducated on the proper use of trailers; they recognize that they would not purchase a car without seat belts but do not understand that purchasing a trailer without key safety features can be just as dangerous. It’s crucial to utilize the connections that dealers and manufacturers have with consumers to increase safety and awareness.  From driving tips to trailer maintenance and components, the Trailer Safety Week website provides end-users with need-to-know information regarding trailer safety in an easy-to-understand format.

Join the hundreds of companies, associations, and law enforcement groups already celebrating Trailer Safety Week. Whether you’re a dealer or manufacturer, pointing end-users to the information on www.TrailerSafetyWeek.com is an easy way to help improve our nation’s roadways and show your company’s commitment to safety.

Don’t delay, join this trailer safety movement that’s taken the nation by storm. www.TrailerSafetyWeek.com/interest.

Dealers Celebrating Trailer Safety Week

Why Your Dealership Should Celebrate Trailer Safety Week June 2-8

Trailer Safety Week (TSW) is an annual nationwide traffic safety campaign aimed at increasing awareness of the importance of being committed to trailer safety, educating end-users about proper trailer maintenance and usage, and creating a stronger alliance between industry stakeholders, including trailer dealers, manufacturers, and end-users. Last year alone, TSW reached hundreds of thousands of individuals.

First launched in 2018, TSW sought to help bridge the gap of communication between trailer manufacturers and end-users. Talking about the importance of trailers built to meet required Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) can be a daunting task as end-users do not understand the complex regulations governing compliant trailer manufacturing. They recognize that they would not purchase a car without seat belts, but they do not understand that buying a trailer without key safety features can be just as dangerous. End-users are vastly under-educated on the proper use of trailers, and it is crucial to utilize the connections that dealers and manufacturers have with consumers in order to raise awareness of proper towing techniques and maintenance.

Getting involved in this important industry campaign shows potential customers that not only is their dealership a leader in the industry, but they are truly committed to trailer safety. Impress customers and instill confidence in the company’s dedication to safety by joining this trailer safety movement. Participating in TSW is easy!

Becoming an Official Trailer Safety Week Ally is a wonderful opportunity for companies who want to be involved in the safety movement but don’t have significant time to invest. The TSW team provides Allies with the official Trailer Safety Communications kit to promote their involvement in Trailer Safety Week and to share information about safe trailering practices. This digital kit includes:

  • Pre-crafted social media posts

  • Downloadable Trailer Safety Week graphics

  • A blog post

  • And much more!

Promoting the dealership’s involvement with Trailer Safety Week is a breeze with this jam-packed kit. The content can even be customized to include information specific to the dealership’s typical customer. www.TrailerSafetyWeek.com also houses a free towing safely guide to ensure trailer-users have readily accessible safety information at their fingertips. Wow your customers by highlighting this free safety resource that reminds them the dealership is looking out for them and their well-being long after they leave the lot. Topics include:        

  • Hitching

  • Loading

  • Trailer maintenance

  • And more!

Now especially, safe trailering practices are important. NHSTA is cracking down on compliance violations, and two recent accidents have brought to light the importance of safe trailering practices. One accident, previously covered in an article on behalf of NHTSA, resulted in a fatality due to inappropriately connected safety chains between the tow vehicle and towed unit which led to disconnection on a highway. Recently, safety chains saved a couple dangling nearly 100 feet above a river.

Safe trailering practices save lives, and with millions of trailers—used by businesses, local governments, and individuals—traversing the nation’s roadways every day, it is crucial to ensure that trailers are being towed safely for the sake of everyone on the roads. NATM calls upon trailer dealers to join the movement in making roadways safer one trailer at a time.
