This is a case where a 72 year old man admitted he stepped on the wrong pedal in his vehicle.

It could have happened regardless of what vehicle he was driving.

There's little doubt the size and weight of his vehicle made it worse.

But it is a stretch to blame the accident itself on the size, weight, or length of the vehicle.

It should be said, however, that regular motorhomes were neither designed nor intended to tow enclosed race car trailers, and really shouldn't be used for that purpose.

Eventually, someone is going to wreck a rig like that, and someone else will figure out that they can make a fortune in court over it. When they do, you can bet that between insurance companies and the government, you won't be using anything but a real truck designed for towing to tow a race car trailer.
