Same thing certainly happens around LA, Houston, St. Louis, Chicago, Boston
and every other big US city I've been to. I see people doing the same thing
to everything from other cars to loaded semis (tractor-trailers). I've had
people cut me off so short that the truck behind me couldn't stop. I'm not
sure whether its ignorance or arrogance, but I'm inclined towards the
latter.
I still see nothing wrong with towing a light trailer (under 3000 pounds)
without brakes, and given the choice of a single axle or dual axle trailer
(both loaded within their weight ratings), I'd pick the single axle every
time. They're much easier to maneuver, especially backing up.
