Hitting the road has been thrust once again into the spotlight during the COVID-19 pandemic. Millions of Americans have shifted their travel to road trips in recent months, as it’s easier to minimize your exposure compared to other forms of transport. With proper precautions and planning (or traveling in your own RV), the majority of risks can be mitigated.
