ARE MOTORHOMES EASY TO DRIVE?
Motorhomes are easy to drive, they have a high driving position giving you a clear view of the road ahead and all our vehicles come with reversing cameras.
-
You're wider and longer than a car so remember this when traveling on narrow roads or when overtaking anything and pulling back into a lane. -
You're higher than a car so may need to move out slightly to avoid low hanging branches. -
Driving with either waste or clean water onboard can add a lot of extra weight which affects the braking and steering of the vehicle. -
The speed limit for motorhomes is lower for cars on some roads, it's only 60 mph on dual carriageways and 50 mph on single carriageways.
DO I NEED A SPECIAL DRIVING LICENCE TO DRIVE YOUR MOTORHOMES?
No, all our motorhomes are under 3500 kgs and so can be driven on a Category B license.
