If a trailer starts snaking what should you do?

Brake hard
Ease off of the gas and slow down gently
Accelerate
Detach the trailer

The correct answer is: Ease off of the gas and slow down gently

When a trailer starts snaking, it typically means you are going too fast or have too much weight distributing towards the back. Brake hard (A) or accelerating (C) can make the snaking worse and increase the risk of losing control. Detaching the trailer (D) is an extreme measure and should only be done if absolutely necessary and only if it is safe to do so. The best option is to ease off the gas and slow down gently (B) to regain control of the trailer and prevent it from snaking further.
