Its certainly not an ideal setup but I don't think its an accident waiting to happen.
Perhaps it hasn't shown up on camera but the whole thing was wiggle-waggling its way down the highway. You may be happy with that setup but to me it shouldn't even be on the road like that.

I don't think so, it was an off-road caravan and the drawbar was so high off the ground I doubt it had much weight on the ball at all.
