[@ChiefStones]

I'm a retired chief of police and every state has different laws. I can only reference Ohio law. 1. No law about sewer caps 2. Merging onto highway you must always yield. 3. No special drivers livense for any size RV. 4. Our local laws did not allow rvs to be lived in. Run for your local council and push to have the law changed. Thats what councils are for. 5. No special laws for RV parking but again local laws can be changed and put in place. Run for council and change the law. My dads town has a law about no RVs in front or to the side of the house. Behind is okay. 6. CCW law is the same in a moving vehicle as in a moving RV. Once parked and established as a residence then ccw law does not apply. 7. Watercraft inspection is legal for ODNR to do but not for local Leo to preform. 8. Length laws and weights do apply to non commercial vehicles. Each state is different. Ohio only allowes one trailer to be towed not any combination of more. Example truck and 5th wheel is okay. Truck and 5th wheel pulling a boat is illegal. 9. Bridge weight and height limits apply to everyone not just commercial vehicles. 10. Parking overnight in a rv, big rig or private car have the same requirements. 11. Firewood transport is a location to location. Generally don't take it. We had/have the emerald ash borer insect in ohio and it is a violation to remove wood from this area. I don't believe its a state law but maybe a federal violation. Hope this helps and please check you local or state law. Most communities are able to pass there own laws and regulations. Ome small example the town that I worked in at was illegal to sell beer until aroumd 2002.

[@markdfranke]

I live in a major city in eastern Iowa. It is illegal to park/store your RV on your property IF it extends in front of your house. My neighbor had to put a pad beside his unattached garage that sat toward the back of his property to park his large 5th wheel. Since he and his wife are getting up in years, they no longer have an RV, so I mow their lawn and blow their snow in exchange for parking my travel trailer on their pad beside their unattached garage.

[@jeffreyhanks551]

I have broken the no alcohol frequently. I have been told in almost every state park that I have visited to keep in out of sight. I’ll have my mixed drink in a Yeti so no harm no foul. Main thing to remember is don’t over partake and get stupid in general view of others.

[@mjablonicky3824]

We bought property in Northern WI. It was land zoned recreational. The town allowed Dr A few years later we were told we would have to put it in storage from November until April. Some town board member had a storage facility and wanted to make some extra money. We all threatened to remove our rv's completely and not use them at all. The land would be vacant. Since the property taxes were only $50. It was no big deal. We also mentioned that the revenue the town would lose would be thousands of dollars. We eat at their resturants, purchase groceries at their stores, rent slips for our boats, purchase fuel at their gas stations, etc. That ended that talk. We were able to keep our rv on our property all year. They can't make us build either because the land won't perk for septic.

[@BigHueJanus]

For the last 4 years I have parked overnight at Florida rest stops monthly no issues (I travel for work from Louisiana to all over Florida). It is one of my favorite places. I asked once and they said as long as you do not put your feet down and open your slide, you are not officially camping, they consider it resting like the rigs. I think that is the difference. I have a class c, so I have stayed most places. Rest stops, Cracker Barrel, truck stops etc. I will avoid Walmart if possible for safety reasons. Lastly I would never travel to a place I do not know without my long range hole puncher.

[@KP-ni8bh]

Is that the hole puncher with the convenient point and click interface?

[@Capt-John-T-Moore]

Our HOA requires an email to inform them about parking our Rv in front of the house to load it or unload it. If you get caught doing this without informing the HOA. You get a $50 fine. You cannot have your Rv parked anywhere on your property. You cannot park it in your garage. If it fits. We were considering a HiLo Rv to begin with. We just bought another home where there is no HOA. City restrictions prohibit parking in the street, but your driveway or backyard is permitted. I am not a fan of HOA’S

[@retiredacftmech.1786]

if your township plows the roads then you can park out front. your hoa does not own the street. my inlaws had this happen and wife got the info and told them to give them your lawyers phone number to call. no problems since. boat was on st for 2 days before they went south.

[@piushorning4869]

A friend of mine is a city officer and he told me yes there is a 72 hr law in this town for any vehicle you park on the street, BUT, he said you only have to move the parked vehicle a short distance, not a 10th of a mile but if you put a mark on the tire to indicate 12 noon, you only have to move it to indicate 1201 PM

[@shaukeki]

Just curious. When I started watching your channel, it was about your experiences actually camping. I miss those days. Why the dramatic change? Even if it's just once in a while, it would be great to follow you around again.

[@user-je5jq1xp5q]

The speed ratings on must rv tires is 60-65 mph any faster you will over heat the tires and good chance you will have a blow out! Slow down and be safe.

[@charlesleon1071]

Not true. Many tire including the tires that came on my last two trailers are rated to 80 mph. Just get the code on side of tire and google it. It will tell you for sure.

[@robertpiska6742]

The tires I just purchased are rated for 85 mph just have to know what you are looking for on the marking of the tire.

[@terencehennessy1145]

They 65mph speed rating became obsolete about 10yrs ago and any 65mph tires have expired their date now? 80mph is about lowest rating on tires now, from what I read?

[@robertpiska7839]

Unfortunately some of the lower ply tires still have J speed rating which is around 65mph. That's why you need to look for speed ratings L for 75mph or M for 80 mph.

[@user-je5jq1xp5q]

@@charlesleon1071 Thanks for that update on the tire speed rating in which I did check mine, its rating is S. All my reading and research recommends not driving over 65mph for safety purposes, even though tire rating can be higher. The load rating is also important. Thank you again for pointing that out. I’m Still learning and trying to be safe at the same time. 😊

[@Johnnymailman]

When leaving your camp site, ask your neighbours if they want your left over firewood. The campsite owners/ facilitators clean up the site and "collect" the wood.

[@keithmalmberg8395]

The sewer cap is regulated by FEDERAL DOT laws. You are technically required to have a cap on the fresh water supply line. Feds say that ALL pipes that are attached to a tank that holds any type of fluid to have a "safety cap" at the end of the pipe.

[@SalmonKing52]

The only”laws” you mentioned that we are guilty of are… #1 staying overnight at rest stops. We have only stopped for a quick 8 hr nap when we decide it’s just not safe for me to be behind the wheel anymore. But then we only RV in the Western half of the states and I think Colorado is the only one with that restriction…we’ve never seen it enforced however. #2 driving with the propane on. We’ve travelled that way for 40+ years…until now. I am about to complete the installation of a solar system with an inverter. We will now be able to travel with the inverter turned on while the engine and the sun keep the battery’s at full charge. Very interesting video! I’ve recently started looking at the harvest host organization. Not quite sure yet if it’s right for us as we feel we’d be “forced (?)” into spending money at these places where we may not have that extra to spend. As a disabled veteran money issues are why we only get to make one or two short trips a year that extra drain on the budget just isn’t in the cards fir most of the time.

[@rodneyrochon1901]

Yes driving your RV with the sewer cap not in place is a violation, generally cited under the health & safety codes not the traffic code. Speed limits while towing are related to the weight of your rig. Vehicles over 10000 lbs have to follow the speed limits for trucks. Any and all watercraft including standup paddle boards and kayaks have to stop at state watercraft inspection stations to prevent the spread of aquatic invasive species. (Retired Deputy Sheriff)

[@farcohollis1369]

Harvest Host in reality is not free. You pay the subscription fee and are expected to spend $20 or more where ever you stay….so it’s not free….its reasonable, yes, but not free.

[@redheadedlassie1]

They didn't say free. They said no additional fees

[@jamielynch4618]

Are you a Congress person,,, you do pay​@redheadedlassie1

[@BernieKathie]

$30 now, is what it said when we joined.

[@BernieKathie]

[@terrygillis9909]

still a fantastic buy, if you are self-contained and like those experiences. It's not for everyone. But we love it.

[@wawonajim2466]

I get passed all the time by class A rvs going 70+ to 80mph with thier jeep in tow.

[@RayBrassley-ke1ee]

I-95 that’s common. Crazy.

[@ClassySassyManes]

That's so crazy.

[@claudiacruse6488]

We have neighbors that have an rv in their front yard for the past 5 years that family members are staying in. It is filthy and looks trashy. Regarding leaving gas on while you drive, it is so dangerous. We always shut ours off. Even driving for 6 hours, the food in the freezer is still frozen and the food is cold in the fridge.

[@DiannaUrbigkit-kr4yf]

I drove a semi for over 20+ years and I am well versed in rv laws as they are not to much different from driving the big rigs. I use the motor carrier's atlas and it gives a lot of good information that also pertains to rv's.

[@collinsfriend1]

Agree. I don't think you should be able to do what you want HOA or not. Some HOAs even ban in house guests longer than 2 weeks. Ridiculous. The only thing I can agree with is huge weeds and dry brush because of fires. I am irritated that parking and sleeping is getting harder for people. 1- how many times have we heard or read "Don't drive tired, pull over and sleep." THEN make it illegal!. grrrr. We are a little fortunate in that we are a rural tourist area and there's a ton of RV's in driveways... so I don't think that'll be an issue ever here.

[@corrtechit2901]

I have a Beautiful property I purchased to build a home all myself in Tobyhann, PA, and I keep our 30ft new Travel Trailer on the Property while I build the new house. The township reached out to me and said I can't do it and need to move it off the property, if I didn't I would be fined $250 a day. But I reached out to the Township and told them I'm not living it I'm just keeping it there to stay in when I travel from my NJ home to build the house on the weekends. So the Township allowed it, Thank goodness. As long as I don't stay in it longer then one week at a time until I get a CO for the new house. So your right each township has their own Rules for parking your RV on your own property.

[@stevenreynolds2327]

Tell them it's a. Construction site office.

[@leah_ashes]

The propane one makes sense because if there is an accident, it can explode and kill people. Especially if it happens in a tunnel or ferry, it could be a huge disaster

[@sleepwithapro]

IIRC - Washington State Ferries require propane off, tanks are tagged before you are allowed to board.

[@leah_ashes]

I think the reasoning behind not being allowed to take wood from campsite to campsite might have to do with the idea that you might be unknowingly taking species of insects from one place to another. Some insects if you bring them to another region can be an invasive species and decimate the ecosystem. I think that’s why they give tickets for that to try to mitigate that from happening frequently. If any of you are wondering why that might be.

[@jamielynch4618]

I really enjoyed watching this video. What a great idea to split between you two. Keep me on my toes watching. Just real enjoyable.

[@dougcjohn]

Own home in Iowa Town… we can park 5th Wheel on our property, can’t park in driveway due to short driveway length, can’t cross public easements on “grass” (street to yard), although adding a new driveway, can then back 5th onto property … yard or 2nd Driveway without issue. So we can park & store RV in back yard while homebase. If your state has no CDL requirement, it’s not needed in States that require their Resident to have CDL.

[@mrnobody8540]

Cap law falls on the EPA regulations - however if your a large company or Government - EPA will not care, it's about revenue

[@AmericanMX]

California has most of these laws because of the people who lost their house go buy a cheap rv and live on the street. It’s all over Southern California. It is really bad there. I hear Colorado, Seattle, Portland all have this problem.

[@terriszopa5233]

We learned about Colorado no overnight parking in rest stops a couple of years ago, coming from Nevada we didn't think we would have an issue to sleep overnight. We did make it to a BLM spot up in the mountains though. Because of that experience we joined Harvest Host it saved us big time. We headed back to Reno from Oregon but was one day ahead of our reservation at the State Park, we thought no big deal we would just stay at a truck stop/casino that we used once before. NO they would not allow RVs anymore because of the homeless problems. I found an Alpaca farm on the Harvest Host network and got a response right away. We loved it

[@jimkrasner6486]

Re: firewood. Never got a ticket, but had wood confiscated. Taking across US Canada border is strictly controlled. But if you are going to move wood, the issue is really with the insects living between the wood and the bark. In Indiana, where they actually have certified firewood, it is either heated to kill the insects or had the bark removed or is scrap lumber. Bringing in wood that is scrap lumber or without bark seems to pass the requirement. Note, if you have the bark removed, you can see if there is any actual burrowing into the wood itself. Don't transport if you find these signs. But it is a real issue where invasive species can wipe out entire types of trees from an area.

[@scanadaze]

Why laws are the way they are. Those who make laws. Do not use anything the public uses. Therefore. It doesn't affect them personally. Meaning. They are 100% unjob qualified to make any laws. They personally have zero experience with society.

[@kimberleystokes7990]

Yep, Pitman, NJ you have to get a permit to have your trailer in front of your home to load it up and no longer than 24 hours. It is a power grab

[@terrygillis9909]

Bought my Class A rig in OH. I live in PA. Questioned salesperson and Tech rep if I need special license to drive this heavy 36' rig. "No," they all replied. 6 months later on a FB RV post I read about a debate about RV licenses. Oops, PA was one of 6 in the list. Immediately I took my test and got my license upgraded to drive the rig. Oops, I never did specifically ask the OH dealership people about PA licenses. They were correct in OH no special license was required. And someone from OH or IN can drive my rig without a license upgrade, but no not me in PA. This is a very tricky one and so many do not understand the rules vary from state to state.

[@j.r.giesecke4887]

New to the channel. My thought on why many laws against RVs have to do with unhoused or homeless people. Many people are buying rundown RVs and are causing a problem for many communities. I am not judging those on hard times, by the grace of God I'm not in their shoes. I think if the housing problem improves, laws might be relaxed.

[@tdr9204]

More and more municipalities are outlawing or limiting living in mobile homes, as in Tiny Houses (on wheels), because they can’t tax them as property. Unfortunately, RVs got sucked in under that umbrella, but as another poster mentioned, explaining to the town officials got him a waiver (and having an actual taxable building helped I'm sure). My city, and now the county, are slowly attempting to outlaw homeless people by banning sleeping in any vehicle (including RVs) in certain parts of the city/county, and those areas are growing each year.

[@leecox1513]

RV owners who plan to park their rig in areas that are considered illegal by HOAs or local government should have checked out these legal points prior to purchasing their RV. If they had felt that they could not or did not wish to abide by the rules, they should have thought twice before the purchase. Parking RVs in front of houses is considered an eyesore, and rightly so.

[@sjf67gto]

There's no such thing as private property as long as there's property taxes, property taxes give the government that so-called right to tell you what you can and can't do on the property.

[@glennbeadshaw727]

And if you can't pay the taxes you lose the property

[@jimbukowski6397]

National parks require you buy firewood from the county the campground is in or USDA certified heat treated wood. They also sell expensive, crappy firewood at the ranger station. My cheapest option is buying the certified wood at my local Kroger before I leave home! Upon check in they ask if you brought your own firewood and where it came from but they do not inspect it!

[@KP-ni8bh]

This is why I have a propane fire pit.

[@straytrons3450]

Some states require a CDL with "Double/Tripple' endorsement with more than one trailer. i.e. a Jeep connected behind the RV and a lightweight motorcycle trailer connected behind the Jeep.

[@JamesMcGillis]

In our community, homeowners have created illegal curb-cuts and installed a "second driveway" across their front lawns, parking an RV in their front yard. Others pour concrete next to their legal driveway and park an RV there.

[@fpkites]

65mph is the sweet spot for economy with my F-250 and TrailManor 3023. Any faster and I go through a TON of fuel.

[@aceofspades1849]

In terms of the possibility of CDL license for some states if you’re Canadian and traveling due to some treaties between the states and Canada you just need your regular drivers license.

[@tomwilliam5118]

On the interstate, I believe there’s a minimum speed that you can drive. So if it’s 75 normally and you drive 60 that may be below their minimum.

[@Itsa_Mea]

They're normally posted and commonly 60mph limit, 45mph minimum when they are.

[@tomwilliam5118]

@ thank you so much for responding to my comment. That means a lot when a channel response to my comments keeps me interested in their channel. I noticed lately probably in the last year that I have not seen any minimum speeds on I 40 in Tennessee. It used to say 45 miles an hourbut now they just have either 60 or 65 go figure but you still get that little gray hair lady that barely can see over the steering wheel doing 35 miles an hour in the middle lane lol

[@davidoverholt251]

Put the caps on the drainage tanks after you dump! Do not dump on the highways!

[@paullogan9960]

Check the GVRW of your prime mover. Add the GVRW of the trailer. Over 26,000 pounds (AMERICAN not french weights) could require you to have a CDL. Also to that look at what happened back in the 1980's or 1990's. Az. will not even look at an RV from that. GREAT VIDEO THOUGH!!! KEEP IT UP!!!!!

[@leah_ashes]

I’d get a garage kit and build it, park the RV inside it and nobody will know you’re living in your rv.

[@raceme25]

In miami gardens florida it cost $300 a year to keep your rv at your house. it has to be in the back yard on a improved surface. you can only have one parking permit. so if you have a trailer like you you cant have a truck to pull it cause you need a permit for it as well/ Now they come out and check to see if it is hocked up. you are not allowed to do that either. But most people have one in there yard. they disconnect it when they come to inspect. then hook it back up. They are renting them out .

[@joannelamar6389]

55 mph max for towing in California. Also I hope you had a permit for filming in the National Park or you were breaking another law.

[@EnjoyTheJourneyLife]

LOL, thanks for sharing! Filming in NPs has been legal on and off, currently it's legal.

[@wilbard6708]

Didn't break this law and found it really strange the way it was enforced. This happened years ago in Michigan when there was a outbreak of a insect that was killing trees, (I don't remember the insect or type of tree) Anyway it was and I think still is illegal to transport fire wood from the lower peninsula across to the upper peninsula. The Mackinaw Bridge has the toll gate on the upper peninsula side, where they used to ask you if you had any fire wood with you. If so they confiscated it just after the toll gate and several times I saw large piles of fire wood there, the thing I found strange was they took your fire wood after you were already in the upper peninsula, maybe they sprayed it down right away I don't know. Yes they did prevent it from going any farther, but it was already over the bridge. I think the rule is not to transport fire wood more than 50 miles from where it was cut down.

[@John-cx9tp]

I live in the city of Spokane Valley,Wa, and it's illegal to stay in your own RV on your own property for any length of time. I found this out the hard way.....

[@chrismcgee2042]

In whittier, CA it’s illegal to park your RV in your driveway unless you have a fence and gate surrounding your front lawn and driveway

[@ardoholt2063]

In North Carolina State Parks you cannot bur wood from fallen trees in the forest. the limbs must rot and go back to the soil. You can be fined.

[@jonigeszvain3084]

Transporting firewood is a serious problem. Smoky mountain national Park has suffered greatly due to this. Also not supposed to film in parks and put on KZbin, which is kinda dumb

[@dougwilliams3276]

Guilty of the Firewood one, ONCE. And then the nice ranger told me it was against the law and gave me a warning. We opened the bay and pulled the wood out right in front of him. We was Dumbs LOL

[@georgejdvorakii9664]

Bought wood in NB, Canada crossed the border and had to go back to Canada to dispose of it.

[@EnjoyTheJourneyLife]

Oh wow, thanks for sharing!

[@Itsa_Mea]

Haha. My friends had the exact same experience except going from the US into Canada. The border agents made them get rid of it in the US then come back to cross. That was back in 2002.

[@lyfandeth]

Finally, a good reason to buy and use those sawdust/wax fake fire logs. Although, I have no idea if you could put one out to save for tomorrow.

[@wolftrainservicesltd6418]

Each province in canada wont allow any wood from another province if its for fire wood. You cant have any fuel containers on your vehicle that exceed the amount that the vehicles tank can hold

Alot of speeders I see are RV transporters, then you buy the RV and wonder why your tires blow out.

[@davidoverholt251]

Dep. In NYC allows so many drops per minute after that you get a fine

[@stephencarr7173]

Your RV is registered to operate on the public roadways. You pay a fee to the Motor Vehicle division, you pay for required insurance, and you get a sticker for your plate. This is typical of all the vehicles you drive. Operation of a motor vehicle includes parking either in a public or private space as long as there is adequate room to do so. Parking on the street for any vehicle is generally 72 hours to prevent abandon vehicles, but they have to tag/notify you first. There is no requirement stated when you pay or renew your yearly tag that is different as to where you can/can't park. You have the right to free travel within the boundaries of the entire United States. Local city ordinances set up rules that exclude some areas that you can park, but they can be challenged if they violate your rights. But this is a huge hassle and cost time and money. None of this seems to apply to homeless, as they park and stay anywhere with impunity.

Non residents of canada cant camp on government ( crown land) without a permit. No camp fires , but you can buy fire wood.

[@janicedoman3317]

Would like to mention that when you leave your camp spot always leave it cleaner than you found it.... I work at a campground and it's amazing how many irresponsible campers leave trash in their site and fire pit, like burned up beer bottles and cans, diapers, doggie poo bags, plastic, last nights dinner or morning breakfast leftovers, bacon grease, etc etc etc....... These people had a clean camp when they arrived thanks to the campground employees...... I want to have a sign that says your mommy doesn't work here so pick up after yourself.....😡

[@mrnobody8540]

It's revenue policy by Karen's and Kens

[@wolftrainservicesltd6418]

Truck inspection stations in western canada have rv and passenger vehicle inspection days. Watch the signs. Zeebra muscle check days as well

[@app103]

Add this to your list of states where you can't park overnight in a rest area: New Jersey.

[@dannachel6980]

City ordinances are not law passed by the state legislatures

[@KRich408]

Laws and Rules are not the same thing. Laws can bite rules are common sense reminders that many ignore.

Speed limit in ny towing an rv is 55mph. Dont ask how I know

[@Itsa_Mea]

NJ too.

[@debconness7718]

Untill they pay my property taxes they shouldn't be able to say no using it while on my yard

[@olliechristopher467]

The biggest one I see that was not mentioned is exceeding the GVWR. Sadly this is rarely an issue (with RV's) until a collision occurs. Then it ends ups being a nightmare for the vehicle owner.

[@boondockduane]

Tank cap? Not illegal just not a good practice

[@larryjanson4011]

in a city i go to all the time (for other reasons), i can get a three day parking permit. FREE. BUT. one block away in another city i can park FREE, no time limit, with no permit. yes both of these are sleeping in.

[@DocLord901]

Some tunnels do not allow propane period.

[@rvgrandmacharlotte4604]

Harvest host requires you to spend money, usually a minimum of $20 is the norm. Us on fixed incomes can't afford it. First having watch you in a long while. I realize you earn money from your sponsor but I pay for youtube premium to avoid commercials/ads. What you and others have not included are the states and cities that restrict width. Most are east coast states. We were going to drive through Savanah years ago until we found out the city restricts the width of vehicles including RVs. Our wide body motorhome was too wide. Most that have limits set it to 8 ft unless you are commercial vehicle aka truckers.

[@SteveDodson-l8n]

I need to get hooked up with your Source!

[@kimberlyholland8864]

We have solar, and never drive with our propane on.

[@BernieKathie]

Harvest Host is not free. You are supposed to buy $30.00 at their business.

[@collinsfriend1]

they inspect water sport "vehicles" because of hydrilla and mussels and other imported pests.

[@larryjanson4011]

a lot of places i have camped at it is a crime to gather downed wood for a camp fire. and this is not at "camp grounds" but out in the wilds. but out there in cal it may just be a crime to have a camp fire... wild fire dangers. and not all camping areas sell fire wood, but legal to have a camp fire. so you are required to bring it in. but never bring in ANYTHING into ca as of the food sellers, and wood venders do not like it. nevada does not care, most of az does not care. new mexico? utah?

[@valsimon2486]

99% of the time they don't bug rv's I'm 44ft coach and 24ft trailer and 5 ft tougne. We have gone coast to coast with no problem

Why do you take a car with you?

[@edpippin]

I used to have an RV in Ga since 1994 and parked it in the yard. Around 2010 a zoning officer informed me I was not supposed to park an RV in my driveway . I challenged then that I should be grandfathered since it had been there for over 20 years, told the to check google map videos they do annually. Did not hear anymore from them. I sold the RV in 2017 due to health issues .

[@carrollpruitt7356]

It’s called zoning

[@davidoverholt251]

Well Tom, I am not going to follow you two on the RV circuit! Do not dump your tanks in my presence!

[@warlox66]

You folks seem like nice people. But there are many people that see RV owners as being Just like Cousin Eddy from Christmas vacation. Truckers mostly despise RV.s and the people that have them. in many states RV's are nothing but homeless housing and the mess and filth that comes with that. Some of those laws that you think are ridiculous, are community responses to the public distaste for the activities that RV bring.
