Sheese!
What a friendly RV welcome to a potential new member!
Of course the OP is correct, to dawdle along while cars stack up behind you, even tho with your big rig,even tho you are a VIP is just plain ignorant!
I always pull over as soon as possible if I have a few cars, or if even one car has been following and cannot pass.
I drove school bus many years ago and also then pulled over when possible to let traffic by.
Lets just remember that we all put on our pants one leg at a time whether it is in a Prevost or a bread truck conversion.
I really do believe that the tollerance and friendliness of the board has declined since a few years back.
Life is short,Death is long,
Take a vacation.

I drove the company bus to a convention yesterday, on the way up one grade I passed another (church) bus, as I crested a rise I could see that there were about 20 vehicles lined up behind the other bus. The driver was not pulling over as required by law. Here in WA if there are 5 vehicles behind you you MUST pull ever to let them pass.
Most RV's are considerate, some, just like other drivers, are not!

Huh.... five pages of posts and the OP has no rebuttle????

thanks to you guys, I see the light...
I am sorry and apologize to all I have given a honest opinion to, that was based in fact or experience or passed on from other RV.net'ers in a effort to help or inform or otherwise contribute to the forum... I now know many are looking for validation and not honest opinion and don't want truth or fact cloud that validation...
I promise to only fully agree with the OP's and only offer advise I know they want to hear no matter the circumstance...
no I promise...

It is just as rude to come here and scold RVers with your first post on the forum as it is drive slowly thru town holding up traffic. Rv or no RV.
I suspect you just wanted payback, as my guess is 99%+ of the members here are unlikely to be so unkind driving thru your town. Seems like the score is even now.

Yes, as a matter of fact, I do own the whole road...........
Why do people pay to go up tall buildings and then put money in binoculars to look at things on the ground?
