...and here's how to do it.

This is the paid follow-up to Killed By Kindness? Don't Make This Dangerous RV Mistake When Driving. If you don’t have a paid subscription, don’t worry. The last post was free, and the next one will be too!

RVs are among the most dangerous vehicles on the road. All it takes is the wrong gust of wind or a tire blowout. Next thing you know, your tiny home on wheels is on its side. Some RVers push their luck even more by triple towing, i.e. they tow a trailer that’s towing another trailer.

I covered roughly 42,000 miles in my FJ Cruiser over the four years as a full-time RVer. I have never had an accident. And my only ticket was a failed bribe attempt by police officers in Mexico.

My license was less than two years old when I started RVing and I am far from perfect. What I am, however, is strategic. While no best practice can guarantee your safety, knowing what lane to pick is crucial for staying safe—especially if you tow!

Here’s how to stay in your lane.
