On July 31, a car and caravan overturned on the N57 near Ouddorp. Two people and two cats were checked by medics; no hospitalisation was needed. The road was temporarily closed, causing long queues.
The Lansingerland First Aid Association is urgently looking for a new storage location for its event caravan, as the current site will no longer be available. The organization prefers a free location in or around Lansingerland. The caravan is used at events such as King's Day, the Avondvierdaagse, and sports competitions, and contains first aid supplies and a defibrillator. President Wilco van den Helder emphasizes that the caravan also provides shelter and privacy for treating injuries. The association, formed in 2024 from a merger of two groups, asks residents and businesses to offer a shed, warehouse, or other suitable space.
Dutch research institute TNO is developing ultra-thin solar film based on perovskite cells for caravans and motorhomes.

According to RDC data, Rijswijk has 230 motorhomes and 588 caravans registered. The number of caravans has decreased from 624 to 588 over five years, while the average empty caravan weight is 1,065 kg, below the national average of 1,102 kg. The weight increase in new models is linked to added amenities like separate showers and air conditioning.
