Anti-Collision Sonar and Radar for Your Motor Home or RV
By Lance Winslow

If you own a very large motor home then you know how dangerous it can be on the road especially in the big city with cars that will not let you over. Additionally there are always vehicles, which will drive in your blind spots and make it difficult for you to change lanes, not to mention stop and go traffic too.

When backing up or making wide sweeping turns you have to be careful that there is nothing in your way and there is nothing that will be in your way as you make the turn or continue to back up. This is why an anti-collision radar or sonar system for your motor home or recreational vehicle makes a lot of sense. Indeed, they are getting very high-ten these days.

In studying these different sonar devices I recommend Eaton’s VORAD System. This system is very similar to the sonar systems for backing up but it uses radar. It also uses radar with a cruise control interface so that you can follow behind the car in front of you and if you get too close it lets off the gas to a safe following speed this allows you to match the speed of the traffic around you.

If necessary in heavy fog it might also save your life as you can set it to engage or activate your engine brakes too. As the traffic speeds up the system will re-activate your cruise control. It also has visual alerts when a car is driving in your blind spot and a warning sound if you put on the turn signal when there is a car alongside of you.

The radar surveys the road ahead for up to 500 feet and works through rain and fog to help avoid accidents. It is a pretty killer high-tech system and something you may be wishing to consider. With heavy traffic there is no sense in risking an accident with an uninsured motorist with a huge ugly 6000 lb car. So, think on this in 2006.
