ABSTRACT:
A trailer recovery vehicle is provided for transporting a trailer towed by a tractor. The trailer recovery vehicle includes a generally horizontal wheeled support platform for mounting underneath the trailer for supporting the trailer in a horizontal position and a wheel brace for engaging a wheel of the trailer to prevent lateral shifting when the trailer is carried by the carrier support platform. The trailer recovery vehicle also includes a pivotable connector for connecting the support platform to the tractor while the trailer is connected to the tractor via a fifth wheel connector, enabling the support platform and trailer to be transported simultaneously so that the trailer mounted to the tractor is supported above the road surface and transported by the trailer recovery vehicle when the tractor pulls the trailer recovery vehicle.
