Simple demonstration of trailer weight distribution effect

The guy that used to transport our VW camper vans always insisted on the vans being reversed on. This is why.
 
With due regard to the max hitch load for the car. Most cars are around 75kg, ours is 135kg.
 
Maybe I am missing something but reversing a campervan onto a trailer means the bulk of the weight is to the rear of the trailer.
 
VW campervans are rear engined...
