CB usage?
Are CB radios still used frequently on the open road? Do you use one in your RV? Thanks in advance.

Most logging roads out west are single-lane (about 10-12 ft wide) with intervisible turnouts when possible. It's been common practice for the logging trucks and other traffic on these roads to keep each other informed by CB radio as to their location so they are better prepared to meet each other and avoid backing up which is hard to do, especially when the road has 6% grades and has pretty crooked alignment. Snowpeke is doing the smart thing.
Which is what I mentioned in my response. There is section of backcountry road here that gets a lot of traffic. Visibility is low due to the curves. A sign is posted that says to log on to channel ## and announce your approach. This area gets a lot of traffic because others live here year around and they have a festival to boot that gets RV traffic believe it or not, up here in this remote area!
