  • We pulled out of our driveway and my extended steps came in contact with a concrete wall. The wall won.
  • About 20 years ago when we still had a pop-up I had a site with a hill. I forgot to chock the wheels. After I disconnected my van the trailer started rolling backward down the hill. Fortunately the tongue jack sunk in the ground and stopped it. Guess what I do on every site now?
  • Drove off once and a guy came running after me so I stopped. He said I forgot to pull my awning in.
  • Don't forget to close black tank valves in sub freezing temps. The outcome can be undesired results...
  • Drove away from the house while still hooked to shore power. And, it was after I did a safety 'walk around.'
    Sometimes you look at things and don't see them. It never happened again.
