Looks like not enough MULE to safely pull and stop the wagon.

Those look like those ratchet permanently attached rear tie downs. Can anyone confirm?

If he has airbags installed, I bet he can just drop the trailer, and head on down to the launch ramp.

Sad thing is the Jackass that caused all the trouble probably just drove away at half the speed limit .

looks to me that the brakes worked fine, seems that quality tie down job of the poontoon was the problem.

Had the brakes been crappy, I think the pic would look a little different. Looks like to me the brakes worked TOO well in this instance.

he rear ended someone, front end is gone too.. probably hit the guy standing next to the trooper, and that's his rig at the furthest back of the pic.. look's like a Florida Trooper

Guess I should have noted my sarcasm in the first of this thread. It's obvious that the brakes on the Tundra didn't create this problem.
