This is because RVs are bigger and weigh more, therefore they can cause more damage in a wreck. It is the same in the sense that you cannot operate your RV or motorhome on public roads legally without the required insurance.<\/p>\n                                                    <\/div>\n                                                <\/div>\n                                            <\/div>\n                                                                                                                                <div class=\"c-faqs-answers__answer\">\n                                                <h3 class=\"c-faqs-answers__question\" id=\"question2\">Do I Need Different Insurance if I Live in My RV Fulltime?<\/h3>\n                                                <div class=\"c-faqs-answers__text\">\n                                                    <div class=\"s-cms-content\">\n                                                        <p>If you live in your RV full-time, you need to let your insurer know.
