Live in Northern Virginia and camper at permanent campsite (we own the lot) in Thornburg VA. Are there any driver training classes within either area or within 100 miles or so?

I don't know if they do a 5th wheel driving school but they do have a driving course. And I am not sure they are 100 miles from you, but try Tom Johnson RV in Marion NC .... Good Luck D

In Bordentown, NJ where the I-295 crosses with 130 and 206, there is a Pilot Truck stop. Next to the truck stop there is a truck driving school. About 10 years ago they were getting into teaching RV driving and that is when we took the class. Not sure if they do it anymore. Maybe contacting the Pilot you can get a number for the school (they shared the parking lot). We stayed in the 5'er Friday and Saturday night while taking the class.
