Practice question
If your articulated vehicle is equipped with a trailer hand brake (trolley valve), why should you NOT use it to correct a trailer jackknife?
- Applying the trailer hand brake will cause the trailer wheels to lock up even further, worsening the slide and jackknife
- The trolley valve only operates the front steering axle of the tractor
- The hand valve causes the fifth wheel slider rail to unlock automatically
- It will shut off the engine due to a sudden drop in fuel line pressure
Answer: A — Applying the trailer hand brake will cause the trailer wheels to lock up even further, worsening the slide and jackknife
