Travel Trailer Restrictions
In Pennsylvania the length of the towing vehicle combined with the length of the travel trailer cannot exceed 60 feet. RVs and travel trailers cannot drive in the carpool lane.
In the Travel Trailer
Passengers are allowed to ride in a fifth wheel trailer while traveling if they can communicate electronically with the driver. However, passengers are not allowed in truck campers or bumper pull trailers. For safety, travel trailers are required to keep flares and a fire extinguisher on board.
