Dealers Join the Trailer Safety Movement

Trailer Safety Week offers a unique opportunity for the entire trailer industry to come together and make the nation’s roadways safer one trailer at a time. Trailer dealers are encouraged to participate as Trailer Safety Allies to help further TSW’s mission to improve the safety of the nation’s roadways by increasing awareness on safe trailering practices.

Held the first week of June every year, Trailer Safety Week reaches over 60,000 individuals annually. It is the first nationwide traffic safety initiative aimed at addressing safe towing practices for light- and medium-duty trailers. NATM has developed content and resources in furtherance of this mission, all available through TrailerSafetyWeek.com.

This year’s national awareness campaign takes place June 7-13, 2020. Trailer Safety Week has historically featured both onsite facility events and online presence. For 2020, NATM is encouraging trailer dealers, manufacturers, and suppliers to focus efforts online to reach end-users!
