Putting too much heavy luggage at the very back of a caravan can make it do what?
- Brake much more smoothly
- Grip the road better
- Sway or snake from side to sideCorrect
- Use noticeably less fuel

Rule 98 of The Highway Code says to keep heavy items over the axle. Weight loaded too far back makes a trailer or caravan unstable and much more likely to sway or snake at speed, which can lead to loss of control.
