Www.rvschool.com. That is the RV Driving School. They have locations throughout the US or, for an additional charge, come to you. I am a former instructor for the school. Successfully completing the eight hour course will get you a certificate that can be used for an insurance discount.
I liked the posting about going to a vacant paved lot. Once there you can practice those things that make up the basics of safe RV operation, I.e., right and left hand turns, swing out of the rear of the coach, backing straight and into a specific spot, etc. The mantra to adhere to whenever moving an RV. Is "Slow, slower, STOP". When in doubt stop. Properly adjusted mirrors and a light foot on the accelerator pedal coupled with a good awareness of the situation at any given moment are the keystones to safe RVing.
