utánfutás

The Hungarian word "utánfutás" refers to a trailer or caravan, a wheeled vehicle designed to be towed behind another vehicle, typically a car or truck. Its primary purpose is to transport goods, equipment, or people. Trailers can vary greatly in size and design, from small utility trailers used for hauling garden waste to large, enclosed cargo trailers for commercial use, and even living quarters for recreational travel, commonly known as caravans or mobile homes.

The concept of the trailer has evolved significantly over time. Early forms were simple carts, but the development of the automobile necessitated more sophisticated designs capable of being towed at higher speeds and carrying heavier loads. Modern trailers often feature independent suspension systems, braking mechanisms, and lighting systems to ensure safety and stability during transit. They are essential for a wide range of activities, including moving house, transporting recreational vehicles, and supporting various industries like construction and agriculture. In Hungary, the term "utánfutó" is used universally to describe these towed vehicles.
