You are right on with your statement here ! I was told by a very good instructor back in 2004 to just simply remember to "Always turn to the problem" - If the
problem is that the trailer is drifting left, then turn to the left and the trailer will go to the right, likewise if the
problem is that the trailer is going to far to the right, then turn to the right to get the trailer drifting back to the left. Always turn into the problem.
