Many of not most States require braking systems on toads, and those that do not, IMO should. Its all a matter of safety, so you get to decide, what's your priority, being as safe as possible or something else. I used to tow using a 41 foot DP, very heavy, and lots of power. The coach was perfectly capable of stopping both the coach and the 3,000 pound toad, but if I ever had to absolutely slam the coach brakes on, the braking on the toad kept it lined up behind the DP, instead of allowing it to whiplash to the side. Like I said your call for you, but I would never tow without a toad braking system.
