Also the trailer anytime that you backup you will jack knife almost immediately, then you will be unable to control your backwards motion, turning with the trailer.

In theory though, you should be able to drag the trailer around because the wheels are the same non-grippy wheels that are on the robot. I'd also venture to guess that a trailer weighs substantially less than a robot, but then again I'm not entirely sure...
