If you get in an accident and someone gets hurt.
only then, is when it really counts. You may get charged.
I've seen hitches like yours and it was bent all to hell.
Don't be stupid/cheap, pay the 150 fricken dollars for a proper hitch
and be safe! This is NOT Microsoft where failures are sorta O.K.
Dag nab it.

Ok, now you are just being plain stupid sir.
You can be 'sure' if something happens and that home made hitch lets go
and your trailer goes off and kills someone you will be charged.
Even in good ol Florida.
Your 'debunk' said nothing at all and I looked.
It was a BS smokescreen link that didn't cover the law about the
structure of the attachment point or cover carrying a load too big for
the hitch or vehicle.

Agreed. Especially in this litigious society and bleeding liberal
wackos seated on the juries.
