13 . To help prevent rollovers, you should:
Keep the load on one side of the trailer.
To lower the risk of a rollover, load your cargo as closely to the ground as possible. To further reduce this risk, take curves and corners slowly.

15 . If a trailer's spring brakes do not release when you push the tractor air supply control, you should:
Drive normally without checking anything.
It is important that all of your vehicle's equipment is in proper working condition before you begin a trip. If a trailer's spring brakes do not release when you push in the tractor air supply control, you should make sure the air line connections are properly attached and sealed.
16 . The service air line is often controlled by the foot brake and is attached to the ____ valves.
The service air line carries air and is controlled by either the foot brake or trailer hand brake. The service air line is attached to relay valves, which allow the trailer brakes to be applied quickly.
17 . If unsure if a trailer is equipped with ABS, you can:
Remove a tire and look for the ABS sensor on the axle.

You can determine if older trailers have ABS by checking under the trailers for ECU and wheel speed sensor wires coming from the back of the brakes.

Assists with the operation of brake lights.
