What’s the test? Any videos and documentations of these tests?

We, having a regulatory body that defines itself trough regulations, of course have a regulation for that. Furthermore, we define how and when it’s applicable and so forth

Thank you! This is more or less what I’m looking for. It’s in German and my German is rusty at best, but I’m glad they’re more specific. Since both are in German is this specific to Germany or EU as a whole? I was digging through the UKs rules which referenced some EU regulations. It sounds like somewhere around the late 90s trailer brakes became mandated per wheel. Which is obviously vastly different from here in the states where it’s kind of an “ehhhhh, good luck.” But at the same token it had me curious if the test is in the same consistent area with consistent factors at play. The SAE here in the states has created a new standard for the US, but it also isn’t used by the manufacturers which plays a big part in our usage of trailers and how we tow and haul here.
