Is 70 the age to stop towing
I think maybe if you drive a motorhome at 70 you are safe, but pulling anything behind it is not safe.

In curious ... aren't big rigs made up of a tractor truck towing something?
How old are their drivers allowed to be? It seems to me that the same criteria should apply to the drivers of towed RVs?
From an overall mile after mile, situation after situation, safety point of view I don't believe in a non-professional dragging a box behind to temporarily live in - at any age of the non-professional driver.
It's not about how one think's that their abilities are at any given point in time, it's about how close are they to the time that their body is more likely to surprise them and those around them with no warning ... regular medical checkups, results, and conclusions notwithstanding.
The tail can easily wag the dog if the dog suddenly loses it while the wind is blowing the tail.
