Passing car forces Class A to shoulder
This happened on Hwy 101 a while back just got the clip uploaded. This is just south of Seal Rock on 101, just someone in too big of a hury as you can see by my speed in the clip.

Watched Video and yes the MH moved over a little bit but to me never went on the shoulder. Down the road he might have stopped and got out of the MH and shook his leg around to get what was in there out and then got a change of undies. Looked at it again and he never went over the white line to get on the shoulder.
assuming you are talking about the "event" at the 49 second mark I agree with you. in fact, If somebody goes onto the shoulder there he is in deep doodoo since there is no shoulder.

Shoulder is anything on the other side of the white line!
Noooo, say it aint so dodge guy!
This forum is an amazing social experience. Even something such as that video, which one would expect would rile up all the ole codgers about how young people can't drive and how close of a call it was and how dangerous it is, instead, multiple people are actually arguing the fact that the RV had to make any sort of evasive maneuver and that the car driver wasn't that bad.....Bumpyroad wrote:

Shoulder is anything on the other side of the white line!- I don't know what video you guys are watching, but if you pause it and play it in SloMo at the 41 second mark you can clearly see he is using all of the shoulder from 42-45 sec. Not sure how anyone is missing that?

?? saw the same clip over and over but no forcing off road or anything that I could see.

Yea, my thoughts exactly.- It took you that many miles to see all of that? You could see all of that in one morning commute on the wonderful Long Island Expressway also known as 495.
- This is an example of one of millions of driving mishaps that happen daily. The participants are just random.
This could have been any where any time with any vehicles.
Trust me RV drivers are not a victimized class by any means.
We took a 18,000 mile trip two years ago and I saw boneheaded idiotic mistakes, stunts,and horrible driving by every class of vehicle. parcany wrote:

bumpy- Maybe the car driver was from Mexico. It's common for vehicles to slide onto the shoulder on 2lane/2way roads to allow passing.
- Actually it is quite obvious that he was over the white line of the shoulder when that car was approaching him.
