I know this is not a great idea and I intend to NOT do this, but I have to go a short distance 30-40 miles with more people and dogs than I can carry in my tow vehicle. I'm pretty sure it is legal in California to let someone ride in the trailer while towing, but not 100% positive. If I have no other option, I will convert the table to a bed and let one person and one dog ride back there if legal.
My other option is to tow the trailer, drop it off, and then drive back to get the additional people and dogs. But that is an additional 40-80 miles and I'm only going for the weekend.

According to California Vehicle Code, “ Subdivision (g) [g states passengers are not allowed in RV trailers, boa trailers, etc] does not apply to a trailer coach that is towed with a fifth-wheel device if the trailer coach is equipped with safety glazing materials wherever glazing materials are used in windows or doors, with an audible or visual signaling device that a passenger inside the trailer coach can use to gain the attention of the motor vehicle driver, and with at least one unobstructed exit capable of being opened from both the interior and exterior of the trailer coach,” CVC.
So specially equipped is a 5th wheel RV with the above safety features added to it. Still, not a good idea in my book.

As long as everyone is strapped in and suspended with enough bungee cords they might survive.

I made it about a block (at only about 30mph!) I couldn't dial the phone quick enough!
It's completely not confidence-inspiring!
