General Comment

As active R V 'rs ,we encounter many obstacles while trying to access dining
services,museums,and points of interest. Due to the geometry of steering on
many types of towable vehicles,you can not back up a single foot {or less} without
causing major damage to the vehicle.Combine through traffic, and you have
caused a dangerous situation to develope. All you can do is disconnect
your "Dingy" and maneuver it out of the way.We have experienced this numerous
times over the past years, and were very happy to finally see the RV friendly signs
{as they now appear} and confidently enter and utilize those businesses.Please
keep what we have ,and expand it if possible.Thank you,

V.R. Jim Hamilton
