Yes, that would've saved the SES getting a second crane to get us out of the ditch.
Regarding braking, obviously it depends on the state of the trailer and car brakes, but I've found that often when the trailer is weaving around, applying the brakes will often make it have one good, big final swing, which is unhelpful.
As people have said, loading and weight distribution is critical, but there are also some horribly unsafe car trailers out there, particularly ones from service stations - brakes that only grab on one side, mismatched tyres, poor design that doesn;t allow you to get the weight distribution right...
