UK Motorway Services You can stay for 2 hours at motorway services without having to pay, and additional time varies by location but the majority offer overnight stays along with food, toilets and showers 24/7. Remember these are private companies and they all have their own rules, charges and facilities so its best to check beforehand if you're planning a route to make sure you have everything you need.

Car Parks (and Parking in them) Parking a camper in a car park used to be no problem at all, and you'd never give it a second thought, but in the last few years its all got a bit silly. Many car parks have height barriers that simply prevent you from parking in them, and those that don't have signs that are deliberately confusing about what, when and where, so you need to be careful when parking anywhere.

batteries

Batteries Purpose Drive Battery Is the battery that's responsible for starting and running the engine as well as associated services such as ECU's, lights, fan, dashboard, stereo and so on. These batteries are designed to unload significant power to start the vehicle, then be immediately recharged by the alternator and kept at a high state of charge. These batteries will suffer if they are regularly discharged by more than 20%.

Laptops, Notebooks and Tablets I think most people have at least one large format device that they take with them when they are away which is great, but there are some considerations. Charging Most tablets charge via USB these days, and USB chargers that run from 12V are everywhere, but larger devices such as laptops and notebooks quite often take more power and need special considerations.

After an Accident DON'T PANIC Firstly, it's NEVER your fault, remember that, and even if you’re driving perfectly correctly, someone else might not be, and quite often an unplanned vehicle-interface situation is the result. Even if no one is injured, it’s an stressful time, but there are some things that you absolutely must do following such an incident, to keep yourself on the right side of the law and the insurance companies.

The Law and You Preface In this country (The United Kingdom) the Monarch owns all the land including yours, and people are permitted 'freehold' which roughly translates as free use of the land and that 'use' is bought and sold. You have no other right to the land and this is why in legislation land is considered 'registered' rather than owned. Further, in recent years county and city councils have been given an ever increasing authority to decide what people can and cannot do on the land tha…
