RVing is Incredibly Dangerous

I know you are all waiting for incredibly scenic vacation photos, but you'll have to wait a little longer.

In the meantime, as a public service, I am alerting everyone to the extreme danger of using an RV.

Sure, all their promotional photos show healthy happy families being happy in front of a benign looking RV in incredibly scenic vacation locations. But just like the healthy happy families in cigarette ads, there is an ugly truth they don't tell you about - RVing is Incredibly Dangerous.

Here are some of the warnings that were plastered all over our RV:

Ridiculous Road Sign

I know you are all waiting for incredibly scenic vacation photos, but you'll have to wait a little longer.


In the meantime, from Nevada, here is an addition to the ridiculous road signs collection.


From a distance:


A little closer:

The arrow is pointing to a stop sign.




Other ridiculous road signs were all the BUMP signs, as in BUMP AHEAD, BUMP 400 ft, BUMP 200 ft, and BUMP.

The highly advertised BUMPs, when you finally got to them, were eqivalent to a well patched pothole in NY/NJ. Maybe a little rumble would be generated when going over them.

In fact, were NY/NJ to put up signs for BUMPs like these, there would not be enough room on the road shoulder for them and the signs would need to be stacked. Around here it would be better to put up road signs, in the event such a section of road could be found, that would say AREA OF NO BUMPS AHEAD 400 ft. So the Driver would not be startled.
