Usually, no, although some states require that ALL vehicles over a certain weight do. Unfortunately, some of those states also exempt motorhomes, because the FMCSA - which seems to serve only to make life more difficult for commercial drivers at every turn - does not regulate recreational vehicles, whatsoever. So, no matter how untrained, unqualified, or unsafe a motor home driver is, they aren't required to stop.

∙ 12y agoNo, they do not. RVs are largely unregulated (I'd be inclined to say dangerously so) compared to Commercial Motor Vehicles, and are not subject to the same regulations and restrictions, even if they have a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating which would require a commercial vehicle of the same weight rating to enter the scalehouses.
