Old folks + inattentive kids + people in vacation mode + old drivers in big rigs at higher speeds = BLOOD

Speed limit in my neighborhood is 25. The houses are set back 25-50 ft from the road. Some people drive 35, some people drive far faster. People on bikes and pedestrians have to be on the lookout. There are a lot of kids and often kids biking and walking down the road in the warmer months.

There are more more kids, more pedestrians and more bikes in RV parks, there is less space between the edge of the road and the RVs, and RVs and the tow vehicles are bigger.

Slow the fuck down in an RV park.

Because RVs are big, parks don’t usually have sidewalks, and nobody wants their kids or pets getting run over.

the amount of drinking in an rv park/campround/trailer park is phenomenal.

have you seen the documentary: trailer park boys ?

Because I’m trying to grill dinner and make old fashioneds 40’ from the gravel road you’re dragging your triple axle 5th wheel down and you’re getting gravel dust all over my filet mignon and maraschino cherries, bro

All very good reasons but also camp owners pay for insurance for their business and if anyone/thing gets hit they will be sued and slower speeds help stop this.

Who's it hurting?

Clean_Giraffe3177 · 2025-04-07T20:18:12+00:00

An entire host of reasons, but primarily the fact that typically trailer parks RV parks and such are located closer to the roads within inadequate sound insulation cars running at 25 or 30 would be a nuisance as well as limited space around each lot for children and people pedestrians to move freely as opposed to a neighborhood with no ordinary houses, which typically has a yard kids have more of a buffer zone away from the road. Not to mention typically RV parks Trailer lots are not paved roads that could be gravel and throwing up rocks could be an issue or creating dust while traveling at a higher rate of speed.

1320Fastback · 2025-04-07T20:20:08+00:00

Because lots of vehicles with bad visibility are driving around, kids are every, pets are everywhere and no one's being careful.

ted_anderson · 2025-04-07T20:33:36+00:00

The streets in a mobile home park are not designed or engineered the same way that a public road in a regular residential neighborhood with single family homes would be. It's more or less similar to a parking lot or a driveway where your level of visibility isn't the same.

Even if you're driving through a residential neighborhood where there are cars parked on both sides of the street, you should be slowing down to about 5-10 mph due to visibility issues and unexpected kids running into the street to chase a ball.

spirit_of_a_goat · 2025-04-07T20:34:45+00:00

Kids, elderly, pets, and drunks.

Parks sometimes don’t have paved roads. The dust speed kicks up makes everything dirty.

johnrhopkins · 2025-04-07T20:46:09+00:00

People, especially kids in and around the RVs are typically much closer to the road than in places like neighborhoods. Our park is 5mph. There are a lot of little kids here. I have no issues slowing down and idling by.
Oh, and noise. The bedroom of my 5th wheel is against the street, so I appreciate the lower speed equating to quieter vehicles.

reddogisdumb · 2025-04-07T21:14:14+00:00

The one I'm in ... I guess a combination of (1) the roads are very skinny (barely possible for two cars to pass) (2) no sidewalks and (3) its what the renters want.

I'm a big believer in 3. The super low speed limit, combined the "dead end" nature of the park (nobody trying to get anywhere else) just makes it a very relaxing place to walk around.

2025-04-08T02:21:02+00:00

RV parks don't have these things called sidewalks.

No_Speaker_7480 · 2025-04-08T15:40:41+00:00

For all the reasons previously listed, but (at least in Florida), there's no force of law behind it. It can be used by management as a tool to kick out repeat offenders though.

2airishuman · 2025-04-07T20:22:29+00:00

In Minnesota, it's because there's a state law requiring a 10 mph or lower speed limit in campgrounds.

And because until recently, there was a combination of state laws that had the effect of requiring a speed limit of 30 mph on neighborhood roads. Politics at its finest

Why do trailer and RV parks have speed limits lower than neighborhoods with ordinary houses and apartments?
