Is it easy to drive a motorhome ?

Yes, the vehicle is easy to handle, which is why you only need your car licence to drive a motor home.

For your first experience in driving a motorhome, here are some tips:

Choose a vehicle up to 7.00 m in length. The size of the camper is specified on the announcement of the vehicle.

Choose a vehicle equipped with a rearview camera, it will be useful for your maneuvers. However, keep in mind that the best camera is your co-pilot!

Clearly display the vehicle template on the dashboard (if not already done by the owner). A motorhome is on average 3 meters high and having this reminder under the eyes will avoid you unpleasant surprises (passage of tunnels, parking bars, tree branches, etc.).

Remember to take the turns well off to avoid hitting the cantilever against a car during your maneuvers or your turns.

Take the time to take a tour of ownership with the owner to give you all his advice on the size of the vehicle.
