On Tuesday afternoon, the Sløverfjord tunnel on the E10 was closed after a motorhome experienced problems. Police said the vehicle had a flat battery and was being recovered. The road and tunnel were fully closed due to the vehicle's unsafe position. Traffic resumed around 5 p.m., with queues and bus services affected.

Three motorhome owners living near Klauvaneset in Bergen have criticized the municipality's parking restrictions, which they say stem from a single neighbor's complaint. They argue the area is used by many groups, including anglers and travelers in regular cars, and that motorhomes are not the main source of litter. Dag Bjørnar Mjelde, head of Tellevik coastal fort, also noted that vandalism has decreased since more motorhomes arrived. The residents suggest providing toilets and waste bins instead of restrictions, some of which have been eased, but the recommendation to impose restrictions on the area managed by the road authority remains.

On August 23, a car with a caravan skidded while changing lanes on E18 in Sandvika, colliding with another car and a barrier. Traffic toward Oslo was fully stopped; two people were checked by medics. The road reopened by 15:34.
