A supplemental braking system is an important safety feature that is required by law in many states when towing a vehicle behind an RV or motorhome. Here are some reasons why you need a supplemental braking system:
-
Safety: A supplemental braking system helps to reduce the risk of accidents by providing additional braking power to the towed vehicle. This is particularly important when towing a heavy vehicle, as the RV's brakes may not be enough to stop the entire rig in a timely and safe manner.
-
Legal requirements: Many states require that all towed vehicles over a certain weight have a supplemental braking system installed. Failing to comply with these requirements can result in fines or other penalties.
-
Reduced wear and tear: A supplemental braking system can help to reduce wear and tear on your RV's braking system by distributing the braking force between the RV and towed vehicle.
-
Improved handling: With a supplemental braking system, the towed vehicle is more likely to brake in sync with the RV, which can improve overall handling and stability on the road.
Overall, a supplemental braking system is an important safety feature that can help to protect you, your passengers, and other drivers on the road. It can also help you comply with legal requirements and reduce wear and tear on your RV.
