82. Travel trailer
A travel trailer is a towable trailer designed to provide temporary living accommodation while travelling or camping. It commonly contains sleeping space and may also include cooking, seating, storage, washing or washroom facilities.
When towing a travel trailer, drivers should make sure it is correctly coupled, safely loaded and within the permitted towing and weight limits. A travel trailer changes the vehicle combination's length, weight, handling and stopping distance.
