Traveling or living in a motorhome provides a great sense of freedom. There are, however, safety risks that you should be aware of. At Atrium Insurance Group, we provide insurance services and advice to residents of Centennial, CO and the surrounding areas.

Here are the top 3 safety risks for your motorhome:

Fire

Like with any home, motorhomes can also have fire risks. It is important to make sure you are always using the best safety practices when cooking or heating up anything in your motorhome. You should also make sure that all wiring is in good working shape as well.

Burglary

Motorhomes are often easier to break into than regular houses. This is why you need to stay on top of your security efforts in your motorhome. Security systems for motorhomes are a great way to cut down on the risks of burglary and ensure that you and your family are always safe when staying in the motorhome.

Accidents

Accidents are always a possibility when you are traveling in your motorhome. Be sure that you or anyone who drives the motorhome understands how to operate the vehicle safely. It is a good idea to take a motorhome safety class to ensure that drivers are well aware of the special driving requirements to operate the vehicle in different types of situations.

You should also never drive when you are tired, intoxicated, or in any way distracted from full attention. This puts you and all passengers at unnecessary risk.
