Twas fecking dramatic. The trouble is there's nothing to stop the trailer slidding. If you use the back brake too much you jack knife. My driveway is 20m long with over 10 % of incline. So once the trailer picked up momentum, pushing myself sideways into the fence was my only hope of stopping it.
I usually walk the trailer down, and let the kids jump in from there. My eldest will no doubt tell of his adventure to Mrs Smallfurry. Then the real suffering will start.
