A method for dynamic monitoring of a trailer using a light detection and ranging (LIDAR) system comprising: scanning the trailer using a set of sensors positioned on a tractor towing the trailer to generate a point cloud of the trailer and monitoring an initial set of motion data of the trailer produced within the point cloud, wherein the motion data comprises velocity data related to the trailer. Provided the initial set of motion data is outside a safe operational threshold, instructing the tractor to perform a corrective action that causes a subsequent set of motion data of the trailer to be within the safe operational threshold. Provided the initial set of motion data is within the safe operational threshold, continuing to monitor the initial set of motion data until the initial set of motion data is outside the safe operational threshold.
