Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Liability Exceeding Speed Limit


Just read an article in the newspaper regarding the fatal accident Bruce/Caitlyn Jenner was involved in on PCH in Malibu earlier this year.

The lead detective on the case is presenting his findings to the DA for possible prosecution.  He indicated the investigation has determined Jenner was travelling at a high rate of speed for the conditions.  Although Jenner was not in an RV he was in an SUV towing a flatbed trailer with an UTV on it.

He/she did not cause the accident, he rear ended a car that had rear ended the lead car in the four vehicle accident.

Just wanted to post this as a caution when driving/towing an RV at higher than posted speed; if involved in an accident whether it's your cause or not you may end up at fault due to excessive speed.

In Puerto Rico, if you're not wearing your safety belt you're automatically considered to be at a level of fault and will have some explaining to do. High speed is not just a no-no it's a high level of liability.
