Not only do you have to be constantly alert while driving and I mean 100% alert 100% of the time,
Welcome to the RV world! Paying attention 100 percent of the time is what should be part and parcel for everybody that tows a travel trailer, tows a fifth wheel, rides a motorcyle, drives a car, or even rides a bicycle on the road. The only difference is that some are smaller and some are larger but all require 100 percent concentration for driving/riding. I am 55-56 feet long (trailer and truck) and it does require lots of planning for changing lanes, finding fuel stations, parking, backing, etc. Keep at it and you will get used to it. Thousands of folks drive large motorhomes or RV's every year almost everywhere with no issues. You will too!
