RV Manual
Return to Rental Rates Page

We are developing an online Manual so that you may enjoy your RV to it's fullest. This is a work in progress and is subject to change at any given time.  It is also a generic peace of work and is meant only as a general guide, it should not be taken as absolute fact.  Each RV is distinct and individual in it's own right, do not take anything written here literally as it may or may not apply to the exact RV you will be using.  Some information provided in these pages are only suggestions.  Please read Your RV page as we have more helpful information.

 

In Canada, USA,  Mexico, Argentina, Chile and the other Central and South American Countries, and in Continental Europe you are driving on the right hand side of the road. The driver sits in his car on the left hand side.
After arriving in one of this countries take yourself a little time, watching the traffic. 
When driving on busy roads, there is usually no problem to find the 'right side'. When using streets in remote areas you should always keep in mind that the driving situation changed from that one being used at home.
Keep on the right side enough distance to sidewalks, pedestrians, bicycle riders, parked vehicles, and those you want to overtake.
Be careful when passing other vehicles on narrow roads.. 
Overtaking other cars is always on the left. E.g. the car you want to overtake drives on your right hand side.

For driving on the correct side of the road, you have to be very careful when driving out from doorways, parking lots, one way streets, and at road crossings, or intersections. It helps to watch the traffic ahead, and the crossing traffic before entering the road, or before proceeding into the new direction. Always think to LOOK TO THE RIGHT. Because traffic approaching from the right usually do have, or you have to give the RIGHT OF WAY.

The center line on the road gives good orientation when driving. It should always be on your left hand side. In addition: traffic coming from the opposite, should approach you on the driver's seat side e.g. pass the driver. 
The gear shift of the vehicle is on your right side between the front seats. Also the lever for the hand break. You use both with your right hand. The lever for the direction indicators is on the left side of the steering wheel. That one for the windshield wipers and the lamps on the right. The pedals for the foot break, the clutch and the accelerator are in the same position as with those cars usually used for driving on the left hand side of the road. 
When being a pedestrian and you want to cross the street have first a look to the left.
