Agree, however, using that same logic, why do you ride a 3 wheeler? And why does anyone ride a motorcycle since they don’t have seat belts or airbags, and a head-on collision is almost a certain death?
The simple fact is that practically all motorhomes don’t stop anywhere as fast as cars, so from a braking standpoint we are already taking an added risk. So what makes that OK and 10% to 20% more than that not OK?
There can be no absolute correct answer (besides legal requirements) because what is safe enough is subjective, and most people will have a different answer based on their personal risk tolerance.
