RV's have a few cardinal sins that don't get washed.
I'm an RV owner too, but I also understand all too well why RVs are unpopular. I've seen too much of this phenomenon while traveling by car. If I were a parking lot manager, I wouldn't welcome RVs either.
1, more spaceI've seen a lot of caravan owners, a parking lot to support the tent, set the table, put stools, and then start the pot to burn oil to cook, done and then wash clothes. Even if there is nothing to do, will also get a chaise longue to enjoy the evening breeze, or three a few people chatting, playing cards.
The caravan itself is big, so a caravan occupies at least two parking spaces. This is intolerable to managers of parking lots where spaces are tight.
I was in a parking lot on the Sichuan-Tibet route, I have seen staff to manage irregular parking, such as not parked in the parking space, occupying two parking spaces, in the parking space on the tent, and so on. People also did not come to target the caravan nitpicking, but ultimately managed, almost all caravans. Some RV owners promise in person, but are slow to act.
There are some parking lots that no one manages, and RV parking is even more random. It seems that many RV owners have no one else in mind - not a few! I'm not going to say anything nice here. Don't say "very few, a few", it seems that more than half of the motorhomes are like this, and they take themselves very seriously.
2, sewageSome caravans leave a pile of rotten leaves, bags, and sewage on the ground after the caravan is gone.
This pile of problems, are given to the parking lot administrators, how can they not resent the caravan?
I've seen RVers throw trash out with their hands, and as for myself, it's something I would definitely put in the trash can. But my state of mind is not high enough to collect the trash for them, but I have to take the blame for their bad reputation for RVing.
3, do not consumeThe caravan is really a traveler's artifact to save money, the car can cook, can boil water, can sleep, and living with electricity, almost all the needs of life, can be solved in the car.
In this case, the RV people do not have to live in the hotel, but also do not have to go down to the restaurant. Frugal a little, completely can do ten days and a half months without spending money.
It can be said that for places that aspire to develop a tourism economy, the value that caravanning tourists can generate, is the lowest. That's what RV owners want, and that's what tourism service providers don't want. Would they welcome a tourist who doesn't make them a big buck?
It's not that no one welcomes RVs - those who drive their own campgrounds are extraordinarily fond of them. But they're probably the only ones who would welcome an RV. RVs are the primary customers of self-driving campgrounds. For small cars, there is no need to replenish water and electricity, and there is no need to enter the self-driving campground, as long as you can park.
4, more public **** resourcesEven if it is a very disciplined car owners, will inevitably be too much use of the parking lot of public **** resources.
RV owners need to wash dishes, pots and pans, and clothes, while small car owners usually do not. Sometimes, the RV itself has to fill up with water. So, RVs use a lot of water.
Sometimes, the RV has to consume a lot of drinking water, throw more garbage, and may stay longer ......
5, some owners have low quality and no rulesI saw an old man, parked his RV in the aisle (because of the close proximity to the faucet), and took a water gun to wash the car. The "No Car Wash" sign was two meters away from him.
Of course, there are RV owners who follow the rules, and I'm one of them. But the reputation of caravan owners has long been tarnished by those who don't follow the rules.
It is inappropriate to simply accuse RV owners of having a problem with quality.
It's the average quality of the population that's the problem, not the fact that motorhome owners are exceptionally poorly educated. That's the conclusion I've come to on many long trips - although I'll probably get flamed for it.
Are small car owners more qualified on average than motorhome owners? Not really. I was in the parking lot of the Tagong grassland, I saw a small car owners to the garbage out of a lift - note that not to the ground, but to the sky, and then the garbage according to the weight of the different, gradual drop, scattered in a large grass, those light garbage with the wind flying, long can not fall to the ground. And the owner of the car started the car to go away and go to the scourge of other places to go.
Only the uncivilized behavior of the caravan owner, extraordinarily inviting people annoyed, especially inviting all kinds of parking lot annoyed. An uncivilized RV owner causes far more trouble than an uncivilized minivan owner. It makes sense that they would be driven away.
Many caravanners are calling on owners to behave, to be public-spirited, and not to tarnish the reputation of the group. But how sheepish and feeble is this appeal! Selfish nature makes some people completely disregard public morality.
Perhaps the only way to do this is to set up a nationwide "credit bank" with information about the owners of these cars, so that all kinds of public **** facilities can refuse service to them!
What's your opinion on this?
I'll tell you about one of my experiences, I started driving a bread bed car driving tour from 2018, these years also saw and experienced a lot of parking lots, met a lot of car enthusiasts, in 2018 when the Dragon Boat Plaza in the city of Jinghong, Xishuangbanna, encountered the first time to be driven away, this parking lot is really great, but people do not love to take care of it, washing dishes in the bathroom sink, vegetable leaves led to the Bathroom drain clogging, originally the bathroom door has a socket, some caravans directly connected to a long line to the side of the car to use, and then the bathroom first power outage, and then it did not take long to be driven by the local city police, well in the Wanda Paradise side of the free site to give the caravan bed car to go to the parking lot, but in the past, a lot of friends in the pavilion pulling the rope to dry clothes, underwear of various colors, like a refugee camp. The second time to be driven away is also in Banna, that is 2020, I drove with my child Fido to go, then parked around the Thai Street, because the Thai Street has been almost abandoned, but the location is very good, so everyone likes to be stationed here, did not live for a few days, inexplicably driven by the property of the Thai Street, listening to the property said the reason for the following, the first, the deputy mayor passed by the Thai Street, found that some people put their underwear drying on the Firstly, the vice mayor passed by Thai Street and found someone drying his underwear in the middle of the two counts on the roadside, and the opposite side is the riverside night market, which is a very bad influence. The Deputy Mayor personally called the property management of Thai Street. Secondly, there is a vacant lot next to Thai Street, which was contracted by a Zhejiang boss to enclose it as a temporary RV campground, charging a fee of 20 a day, but Thai Street, which is separated by a wall, does not charge a fee, and many people do not go to park there, so they communicate with the property owners of Thai Street. These two times were driven away, in fact, a large part of the reason for these uncivilized behavior are drying problems, most of these problems are caused by novice bed car caravan players, the real old players, will play more and more low-key, this is what I have observed over the years, a lot of new players out of the equipment with the outdoors after all, think that the sky and the earth, everywhere is my home, I did not think that a place a customs and habits, and are living Outside, can not be as free as their own neighborhood, really play a year or two of self-driving tourists, generally experience being driven, and then slowly become convergent. This is the experience. But there is another problem, really drive away the RV, bed car, is not exactly a one-sided problem, if the parking lot has a sewer, this sewage problem can be solved in large part. Drying good solution, sewage discharge really ......
Foreign caravans, and not just parked in the ordinary parking lot, to go to the base of the special caravan, to make an appointment in advance, explain what car, how much electricity, water, sewer, a few number of parking spaces, to arrive can be connected to the water, electricity, sewer, and every day to the next city of the base of the reservation. Determine how much to pay when you leave. It is not possible to let you just park, how to dispose of urine and feces when you arrive, how to dispose of food waste, are all questions.
Personal opinion, certainly not high quality, love to take advantage of small advantages, go out to travel, is to spend money to go, and not in the local, more or less embarrassed, people are not spoiled you, and then again, you're traveling to enjoy going, [face] by a stomach of gas interesting?
Because now the caravan more and more, the caravan docking more and more do not talk about martial arts, some even parked in the city's leisure plaza, drying clothes, cooking rows of sewage. This behavior is going to seriously affect the impact of the city, naturally will be driven away.
For example, a parking lot in Shanghai, there are self media issued by the expulsion of the video, I later went to the field, where the small car parking 30 a day, the big car 60, some self media love to be more serious, according to the national provisions of the RV belongs to the small car, you have to be counted according to 30, the problem is that the parking lot of the small car and large car has its own interpretation is very normal, and not highway occasions like this. And the caravan is indeed much larger than a small car no problem. I do not say anything directly to pay 60, they are very polite. If you want to save this money, the security guards will of course drive you away.
In Sanya, the caravan in the past two years has almost become a representative of the obnoxious, any parking lot or beach as long as parked a few caravans, instantly will bring a strong sense of life, it is the pot frying smoke and tree branches drying bottoms bra composed of mundane pyrotechnics.
In this country's top tropical island scenic area, the clear water and sand and coconut trees have become the accompaniment of the caravan fireworks. When you are in the mood, you have to do back to the wheat, and K-song to the waves late into the night.
A year, two years, ten years, a pass ten pass a hundred, Sanya became a caravan paradise, all over the country, especially in the northeast provinces of the caravan rushed to this blue island. The beach is full of tents, the parking lot is full of pots and pans, and the branches of the trees are fluttering with big pants and bras.
The barbaric growth of the tourist atmosphere, completely destroyed the coral, polluted the beach. Of course, this can not let the caravan to take the blame, it is only a small "contributor", just car big wind, it is easy to become the back of the pot. But you can't say that the caravan is irrelevant.
After the epidemic, the caravan environment has come to a big reversal, Sanya Bay, all prohibited caravan parking. During the New Year period, security guards were stationed at every parking lot to monitor uncivilized behavior and impose hefty fines.
One by one, the caravans are diverted to the east and west coasts of Hainan Island, and the few caravans that still stay in Sanya Bay will go to the town of Tianya, a few kilometers away from the bay, to stop. The first time, the wind is very quiet, and the caravan seems to be a street rat.
Domestic facilities are not in place, and then a swarm of real estate travel, creating garbage everywhere, not to be driven out of the strange.
In the United States, RVs can only be parked in designated parking lots, and then need to pay, you just parked outside the supermarket is sure to be driven away. You need to charge the caravan, you need to sewage, there is no supporting services, you let them put the discharge out of the re-digested? The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on a new car, and you'll have to pay for it.
The Chinese people are still a traditional farming civilization, so it's hard to leave their homeland. At least there are some rules in their homeland. Once you leave your homeland without the constraints, that share of bandits and rogues habits exposed ...... "Anyway, it's someone else's house, I'm not coming again" As long as there is a Other people think it's a batch of the evil behavior of a few people to a group, the Chinese language does not have the plural singular concept, it is more likely to cause ambiguity.
Objectively and realistically, excuse me.
Two days ago, the owner of a caravan, dragging his urine box pull box to the service area inside all the way dripping feces!
Or a service and management issues, since there has been a caravan such a means of transportation, then the corresponding ancillary services and management need to keep up with it, such as designated parking lots, for people to rest on the site, wash the car's water source, garbage collection facilities, the corresponding charges and management personnel. All this is the ability to respond to the level of management and pattern. Instead of usually do not care, out of the problem on the blame of this unqualified, that uncivilized, a civilized social environment, inseparable from the scientific and human nature of the careful management. Society in progress, people's leisure consumption concept and means are progressing, but the backward precisely supporting services and management.
