Expert Reply:
The Demco Hijacker part # DM8550037 is ideal for the situations you described. Anytime you turn the truck sharply relative to the trailer the hitch slides back. The sharper the turn the further it goes back and as you straighten up it moves back forward.
You basically would never have to worry about the slider mechanism as it takes care of itself. If you check out the review video I attached below you'll see a camera angle that captures how and when it slides.
