Saw one in Washington a few years ago, on a somewhat isolated single lane stretch of road. Traffic stand still for probably 2 hours (everyone just walking around the road couldnt go anywhere). We were so far back we didn't know what the hold up was. But when we got going we drove by the accident of an rv that crashed and it was a mess. Like an explosion of stuff everywhere. It looked like a garbage dump. Hope the people were OK.
I wouldnt really want to be in one in an accident. Passenger vehicles have so much thought put into them for crashes, side air bags, etc. Rvs are basically made of pop cans and OSB. I would assume the main chassis and front seating area would have some standards as they're 'borrowed' from vans/trucks.
