Do you and your spouse share the driving?

Though becoming more balanced among couples, more men still drive their RVs than women. If you are the female half of a couple, imagine if you were out in the boonies and the driver were to become ill?

You would have to learn how to drive the rig quickly--and at a most difficult time while under extreme stress. Don't wait for that moment to happen. Start learning to drive the rig now, and then share the everyday driving to stay in practice.

If you are the male driver, start giving your other half driving time--and constructive and helpful assistance and encouragement. And if you can't provide the support and the temperament to make it work, hire a driving instructor. Do it. Someday it may mean your life.
