CHAP. VI Driving
!General - overtaking
A camping car is driven in much the same way as a car.
However, the vehicle is larger (both in height and in
width) and heavier ; therefore acceleration is not the
same.
Therefore the most important point is the size and you
must respect road signs about size, particularly signs
that control the height, width and maximum weight ;
your vehicle weighs more than 2 T.
For the width, note that if your rear view mirrors pass,
everything will pass..
Breakdown - Transport
Precautions - Signaling
Avoid the following dangers:
- Underground car parks.
- Some service stations, which may have
superstructures that are too low.
- Shop signs that project over the road.
- Tree branches that hang over the road.
- Passages under porches.
- Narrow roads.
- Bridges and narrow passageways
- etc.
and do not forget speed humps and level crossings.
If you park in reverse gear, do not keep going until the
wheels touch the pavement, the overhang at the back
can be long, so watch the back of your camping car.
When driving, take care with the length on tight turns
and do not hesitate to give yourself a little extra room.
