Can you sleep in a camper while driving?
I want to take my family on a camping trip. The only problem is that my three kids are boys who are close in age, and they bicker non-stop. I want to put them in the camper to prevent headaches. Can you ride in a camper while the car is in motion?

Brothers that are young and close in age are certainly a handful. The good news is that you can sleep in a camper in 19 states, provided it’s a fifth-wheel style camper.
Most campers are, so you shouldn’t have any issues. However, some states mandate seat belts for passengers in a camper, meaning your sons may have to nap while sitting upright. Check with your local DMV to make sure.
The states that allow you to sleep in a camper while driving are:
- Arizona
- Indiana
- Iowa
- Kansas
- Maryland
- Michigan
- Minnesota
- Missouri
- Montana
- Nebraska
- New Jersey
- North Carolina
- North Dakota
- Oregon
- Pennsylvania
- South Dakota
- West Virginia
- Wisconsin
