For many years Richard (Dick) Reed has
been very active in the RV life style. He realized that many people, who
would love to travel in a recreational vehicle, were fearful of driving
or towing the larger vehicles. Having many years experience in truck
driving instruction and a long time love for travel and camping Dick
proposed a school that would offer students instruction in how to safely
drive their own Recreational Vehicle unit.
In 1991 Dick realized his dream and
started the RV School. From its modest beginning, the RV School now has
thousands of satisfied customers from over 48 states. We attribute our
success to our instruction techniques and patience. Our students learn
proper driving habits to safely operate and maneuver all types of
vehicles.
In addition to private instruction, Dick
has also developed a very unique training program through seminars and
classes for those who wish to refine and expand their driving skills.
This program helps the experienced RVer become a safer and a more
knowledgeable driver.
Because of the RV School's rapid success,
it soon became necessary to add more instructors. Dick was extremely
careful with his choice of instructors. They had to have the ability to
teach driving techniques in all the various types of recreational
vehicles with knowledge and patience.
With many years of experience and
background in truck driving, operation of large equipment and bus driver
training as well as many years experience in RVing, Dick and his
instructors have built a very successful program aimed at offering the
RV industry a more satisfied customer, and the customer a more enjoyable
lifestyle.
In January 2007, Dick retired and sold the RV School to one of
his instructors, Dennis Hill. Dennis and his wife Carol have
been RVing for over 35 years and have owned a variety of RVs
over those years. They have been full timing since 2000 and
will continue to do so making the RV School more visible.
Dennis comes from a military background and has experience in
over the road driving of 18 wheelers, transporting new RVs out
of CA and IN. Dennis and Carol also give seminars on various RV
topics and RV driving at shows across the country. Their goal
is to continue the school with its high tradition of excellence
and to expand into more states and grow with other
organizations.
Our Instructors
Our instructors have extensive backgrounds in commercial truck and bus
driving instruction in the classroom, as well as behind the wheel. They
are highly qualified in the field of driver training and share Dick's
love of the RV life style, being long time RVers themselves. All the
instructors are certified to teach RVers to safely drive their own
recreational vehicles with confidence.
