What happens when an engineer designs a railroad overpass that is only eight feet high? Many crashes from vehicles that are too high to pass under! This is evidenced by a crash that happened in Montana earlier this month. A family from North Dakota tried unsuccessfully to go under an eight foot railroad bridge. As you can see by this link to truck camper hits railroad bridge, the results were not pretty. Hopefully your next camping blooper doesn’t cost this much to your pocketbook or your ego!

Camper Crashed Under Overpass
Monday, August 31st, 2009A whole new meaning to beach camping
Monday, August 17th, 2009I recently heard that a RV parking spot on the beach in California will run you upwards of $50 a night. Let’s just hope that if you secure one of these beach sites, that you don’t park quite as close to the water as these people do in this camping bloopers video. While I am not sure how exactly you could get your RV stuck like this, I am sure you can and I am sure people do get stuck like this in their RV every year.
Getting the RV stuck…it is just one of the many camping bloopers you can have in a life of RVing.

Back down the hill in the RV
Sunday, August 9th, 2009Most RV owners responsibly pay close attention to RV towing capacities and weights. Not only can there be hefty fines for not paying attention to RV towing capacities and weights, it is also very dangerous not to heed proper requirements. Thus the following is not recommended. The people in this video did not observe RV towing capacities. What results is a cloud of smoke and a RV that is back down the hill where it started. Very dangerous, but a camping blooper none the less.
