judgegarry Posted August 24, 2020 Report Share Posted August 24, 2020 Much of what I see is fairly on the money. Jurisdictions vary, but if you are not operating as an LLC, under a business license, advertise as "for hire", etc... you're pretty much just doing a friend a good deed. Criminals have a code: "Always in cash, never on paper." that seems to be applicable here, even though there are no laws for being a good Samaritan. The "Hey want to make some money" is the wrong approach here, don't advertise this as a money making scheme, and whatever goes on between gentlemen (women) is none of the state's business. Even in the event you are stopped by a road pirate for a "safety check', keep it simple (being friendly/respectful with LEO's is one thing, talking yourself into a corner you can't get out of is another 😉). Just have a simple story you and your friend agree on, don't diverge from it, carry the relevant paperwork, and what the state doesn't know about covering expenses was none of their business anyhow... As long as I'm withing the restrictive limits of my drivers license (weight, air brakes, etc...), no Judge I've met would come down on you for being a good friend of your RV community. In sum, intent matters; are you looking to make money, or are you looking to make a positive contribution to society by doing a good deed for a friend and fellow #Vagabond?
