This follows a proposal that would have affected vehicles towing a trailer or with a special loading device, impacting approximately 4,700 vehicles in Germany.

The rule of thumb every motorhome owner should know

Bridgestone technician Christian Jensen reminds motorhome owners to regularly check their tires. In Denmark, driving is allowed on public state, municipal, and private common roads, but prohibited on forest roads. Overnight stays on public parking lots are permitted only if no camping activities (such as setting up an awning, table, or chairs) take place. It is recommended to check tire pressure monthly, with a minimum tread depth of 1.6 mm and an optimal depth of 3 mm, and tires should be replaced every 4–5 years.

Volkswagen brought the ID. Buzz back to the United States — complete with a mattress and curtains. A wildfire in Arizona burned down a dozen motorhomes, and Lake Tekir in Turkey flooded just as many. While Ibiza fines illegal campers up to €30,000, a retired couple from Mallorca has been living in 10 m² for five years and saving €1,400 a month. Plus: the largest campsite in the US at 607 pitches, a closed naturist beach on the North Sea, and Dolby Atmos in a trailer — all in this edition.

Search for house from Henning Jürgensen's painting: new lead

A viewer tip led to Gammelbro Camping in Aarøsund, where the building depicted in Henning Jürgensen's painting might be located. However, campsite owner Jacob Knudsen and local archivist Eigil Schmidt do not recognize the manor as the painting's subject, citing discrepancies in details such as dunes and a three-wing layout. Schmidt suggests the sought-after house may be on Denmark's west coast, in the Holmsland and Hvide Sande area.
