Mower Breaks & loses control into the pond

What happens here

The final step involves hooking up the safety chains to the truck and connecting the electrical cord for the trailer lights. The owner demonstrates the correct way to criss-cross the safety chains and attach them, and ensures the electrical connection is snug. He stresses the importance of performing a final 'walk-around' safety check of all connections before driving away, even after being distracted or delayed.

Goal: Ensure all connections are secure for safe transport
