Locations of a left wheel and a right wheel of the trailer are determined when the motor vehicle is at a first point. An electronic processor calculates an instantaneous center of curvature of the trailer when the motor vehicle is at a first point. The calculating is based upon an instantaneous center of curvature of the motor vehicle, a location of a hitch point, and the locations of the left and right wheels of the trailer. The electronic processor predicts locations of the left and right wheels of the trailer at a future time when the motor vehicle has moved to a second point. The predicting is based upon the instantaneous center of curvature of the trailer when the motor vehicle is at the first point, a difference between the first point and the second point, and the locations of the left and right wheels of the trailer.
