How Windy is Windy Towing

[TJ Carr]

Driving thru extremely high wind areas, as in so windy semi’s are being blown over

Question is, what wind speed is comfortable for towing a bumper pull camper, not a big one, but one around 20’ without having a problem

Have seen a couple 5th wheel campers going around 35mm in a 75mph zone and they were being blown all over

I’d suggest using your head. If uncomfortable, stop.

Common sense is not so common any more

I have a 35’ bumper pull TT. I constantly have to adjust speed because of cross winds. I have had to slow down to 45mph in a 75 mph zone with approximate cross winds of 50 mph. In that case I was pushing it trying to get out of there and was still getting pushed into the other lane. I slow down as much as I need, to keep the trailer in my lane.

I have wondered what wind speed/force it would take to tip me over (if possible) stationary or going very slow.
