    As long as I've been driving I've never seen an RV driver using their phone. They are usually about 112 years old with a death grip on the steering wheel with both hands.

    OMG there is NOTHING like a "million" NASCAR fans in RV's trying to win the championship on the way the track. Think hundreds of BMW drivers, high on cocaine, being chased by the cops but in a 40ft RV with a 30 ft trailer in tow. WT actual F. The fall of Kabul looked less dangerous than I-65 before or after a Talledega race. RV's in general are not much of a problem, but NASCAR fans in RVs, oh boy!

    And they’re STILL WEAVING BACK & FORTH in their lane,if they haven’t left their lane already!
    (retired Greyhound driver probably)
    You can hear the Detroit or Cummins screaming as they fly past around 75 mph!

    Reason# 256 to avoid Florida-especially if Daytona or Sebring is within a couple of weeks!!:eek:
