That would help. Of course video would tell us how much of an effect the suspension had - did it start rocking before going over? Did one large gust topple it? I think in either situation stabilizing the rear end would have helped.

If those aero covers hid some arms that could swing out a couple feet away from the trailer and jack down to the ground you could get really stable. kinda like they spread apart for back hoes, but it wouldn't have to be *nearly* as strong.
