13. Getting in Trouble with the Police
There is still a negative stigma about Van's life. Most police officers think that the people living in the van are homeless. They will assume that you will not be good, even if you just try to enjoy a peaceful road trip.
Even if you are very careful, a policeman can pull you off for the slightest reason. That often escalates into alleged violation of rules, only so they have an excuse to inspect your vehicle. A lot of people have accidentally parked at an illegal point they believe is safe, and now that means paying an expensive ticket. There are many more sad cases in reality.
