I pull a cargo trailer often when shopping. It is obviously not a child hauler. I would not, and could not advocate that one pull an empty child trailer simply to get some peace on the road. Truly, if its that bad where one has to do their vehicular cyclist thing... maybe the takeaway is that one should move to somewhere more bike friendly. The only martyrs that get any respect are religious martyrs. I'd bust a gut laughing if any of my cyclist friends told me that they did or planned on pulling an empty child trailer.
