Scotland proposes ban on motorhome camping outside designated areas
Original source: Birmingham Live

In Brief

A petition in Scotland seeks to ban overnight stays in motorhomes and campervans outside designated sites, with fines for violations. The initiator cites overtourism and New Zealand's example.

Scotland is considering stricter rules for motorhome and caravan owners. A petition calls for a legal ban on sleeping in vehicles outside designated areas, with fines for non-compliance, citing the negative impact of mass tourism.

The initiator wants to make access to nature rules legally binding, referencing New Zealand's experience. If passed, UK drivers with motorhomes and caravans could face a new explicit ban.
