GENERAL INFORMATION
Code of Ethics
All recreational vehicles owners share a common set
of values and standards because we are all judged
by the actions of each other.
The Recreational Code of Ethics is as follows:
When Camping, I will...
1.
Dispose of sewage in recommended places
only; such as approved dumping stations - never
contaminate lakes or streams.
2.
Discharge my kitchen sink and shower
waste only in designated and approved locations.
3.
Use extreme caution with any fire, insuring
that it is never unattended and is properly extin-
guished when I leave.
4.
Be especially careful with matches,
cigarettes, cigars, or pipe heels and will obey all
regulations pertaining to "No Smoking" areas.
5.
Place all garbage and trash in the receptacle
provided, leaving no refuse on the grounds.
6.
Never damage trees, shrubs or other items
of natural beauty.
7.
Leave my campsite as clean or cleaner than
I found it.
8.
Position my recreational vehicle so that I do
not disturb or interfere with others.
9.
Always ask permission to park on private
property when other facilities are unavailable.
10.
Comply with all rules and regulations of the
forests and parks where I am staying.
When Driving, I will...
11.
Realize that common courtesy and many
laws require that on a two lane highway where
passing is unsafe because of traffic in the
opposite direction or other conditions, a slow
moving vehicle, behind which three or more
vehicles are formed in line, shall turn off the
roadway wherever sufficient area for a safe
turnout exists, in order to permit the vehicles
following to proceed. A slow moving vehicle is
one which is proceeding at a rate of speed less
than normal flow of traffic at the particular time
and place.
12.
Never be a litterbug, storing all refuse in
my vehicle until it can be disposed of in a
proper container.
13.
Be especially careful to always use my
ashtray for cigarettes, cigars, and matches -
not the open window of my vehicle.
14.
Keep in the right hand lane except when
passing.
15.
Adhere to all recreational vehicle traffic
regulations.
On maintaining my recreational vehicle, I will...
16.
Frequently check the operation of the
brakes and break-away device on my trailer.
17.
Properly secure my LPG bottles, battery,
and accessories before traveling.
18.
Grease wheel bearings and other moving
parts of my recreational vehicle periodically.
19.
Check the tires, wheel lugs, directional
signals, and lights frequently
20.
Carry sufficient insurance to protect
others in case of accident.
21.
Encourage my neighbors to follow this
Code of Ethics.
Helpful Hints for the New Owner
Safety Considerations.
Here is a list of some
important safety checks to always review and
keep in mind while you travel:
1.
Never overload your vehicle. Improper load
distribution can cause serious handling
problems while on the road.
2.
Do not modify your unit without consulting us
first. External modifications such as
motorcycle racks, boat racks, and extended
trailer bumpers have a direct effect upon the
balance and handling of your recreational
vehicle and may void your warranty.
3.
Be sure that your tires are in good condition,
have adequate tread, and are properly inflated.
4.
Check State and Provincial Laws in advance
regarding their requirements for brakes,
vehicle length and weight, mirrors, break-
away devices, reflectors flares, fire
extinguishers, etc.
5.
Never attempt to repair or alter a gas or
electric appliance. Always consult an autho-
rized and qualified service agency.
6.
Thoroughly test your travel trailer brakes
while off the road – not on the freeway.
