Walter Cannon, executive director of the RV Safety & Education Foundation (RVSEF), has announced that its RV consumer safety program, RV Driving Safety, will only be available online starting April 2018.
RVSEF will no longer offer this program at shows and rallies. The program has been updated and tested for its exclusive online availability. The online course is self-directed so RVers can study on their own time, at their leisure.
“With our online program, a student can learn everything from the basic driving refreshers we all need, to the complexities of negotiating all roads in an extended wheel-base vehicle with real tail-swing,” said Cannon.
The online RV Driving Safety Program requires a time commitment of about four to six cumulative hours, and enrollment is just $50. A detailed course-companion manual can also be purchased for an additional $20.
“We know it sounds like a fair bit of time and cost but many insurance carriers support this safety course by offering discounts to policy holders presenting our certificate of completion,” Cannon said.
