For those who have suffered through the always-slow southbound traffic of I-15 near Barstow, California, you could probably use some relief. We’re not sure if this is the kind of relief you need, but drivers on the 15 got quite an eyeful, watching as a man caught a freeway ride on a travel trailer. It all unfolded last Monday, February 19.
Dressed for freeway ride on a travel trailer
Evidently, the roof access ladder of this Jayco trailer proved to be too much of an inducement for a freeway ride. Law enforcement dispatchers began getting calls a little after 1:00 p.m., reporting the unidentified man on the back of the towable. He couldn’t help but stand out, clad as he was in a flame orange jacket. And stand he did. He also danced, on the roof, of the moving RV.
Perhaps he’d never had an RV trip before, but the novelty soon wore off. He transferred himself to the roof of a nearby 18-wheeler’s trailer. Sorry, we don’t have pictures of that.
Free ride in a police car
The man eventually tired of commercial trucking, and reportedly jumped off the semi onto the ground. It was at that point when officers from the Hesperia Police Department gave him a more conventional ride. This one in a police car. A freeway ride on a travel trailer. On a semi-truck. And in the back of a patrol car. Sounds like a triple-header dream of your average kid.

Everybody wants to be “us”!
Play “stupid games” – Win “stupid prizes” Hope he enjoyed his free ride in a police car
I live in California and with all its problems, being born here, I will die here, so I can rightfully say as a resident and RV owner, California will now be outlawing ladders attached to RV’s.
Yep, probably so…
More likely they ban RV’s as being a convenient nuisance. They’re already set to ban
diesel vehicles because of pollution concerns. Next will be vehicles that do not meet certain fuel mileage criteria. People pulling trailers will lose that ability.
Anything goofy or stupid seems to get its start in CA. Just sayin’.
It’s been that way for decades, the majority of the voters like it that way!
Wait until the ban on ICE vehicles goes into effect and the interstates are jammed up with RVs dead with dead batteries.
That’s funny.
CALIFORNIA: Men riding on RVs, outlaw the ladder. LOL. That’s sooo funny Split Shaft.
Crime too high, decriminalize Crime. OMG, California. LOL. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Cancel, I wonder if he caused trailer sway while sitting on the back of the trailer? Driver would have been puzzled with rapid onset of sway…
Thank you, Russ and Tina! My, my, my, … . 🤔😯 Safe travels! 🙂
RV trailer Rider probably rode a Box Car roof from South America!
