Anti-RV "No Overnight Parking" bill in Maine Legislature

[bubblerboy64]

I can see this coming. If they allow a reasonable time period of say 10 hours
then I think its good. Problem is if it's stated "No over night parking" then
it's rather difficult to tell how that is enforced. My suspicion is that most
business like wal-mart appreciate the RV'r who stops at say 10pm and frequents
the store the next morning and moves on. I can also see how this is getting out
of hand with people parking for days at a time. Have to see how it comes out in
the end. The RV parks are out of hand in their prices.

idiot from NJ in his Forrest River with a matching painted 28'trailer, a
matching painted Jeep Wrangler & a Harley Fatboy, sitting there. He had his
awnings out & levelers down. In the passenger window there was a sign shop sign
saying they were in the area visiting friends & if there were an emergency
situation please call a cell phone #. This idiot was there for 2 days. I asked
the store manager if he had given them permission & he said no and that there
were even signs posted on the property stating no overnight parking. The
manager stated he had no problems with a few hours but 2 days was extreme. I
suggested he have it towed. Within a mile there were 3 RV parks & 2 RV
dealerships and this stupid idiot was squatting on the Walmart property for 2
days. It's idiots like this which provoke legislation, emergency situations are
one thing but out right stupidity is another. Cities should impound RVs when
they abuse a good thing then those owners would be more respectful of the laws a
city imposes.
