That's your first problem. Why would you be concerned with passing semi's towing a 10,000 lb trailer with that rig? You should be more concerned with the semi's passing you.
The longer the distance between the rear axle and the hitch pivot point the more leverage the trailer has to push the tow vehicle around. You would absolutely need a weight distribution, integrated cam-lock sway control hitch. Don't even think about the friction sway control.
