Default Re: motor home safety

I own a Bluebird Wanderlodge, many years ago I attended a seminar put out by Goodyear tire company for Bluebird owners. They showed us that the main reason for tire failure in motorhome was excessive speed. One of the reason we were told to stay at 55mph limit, now motorhome can easily reach 70mph for long periods of time. The other important thing they told us is once you feel the blowout apply full throttle(foot to the floor) and drive out of the problem. Consider all those episodes of Cops and watch all the bozos who continue to drive on flats after having their tires shot out from them, they can still steer the vehicle. Check the youtube video. Thank God Jeff made it through and I hope that he gets away from those crooks in Florida.Claude
