some rest areas do not allow overnight parking. In Florida they say only 3 hours max.
We also prefer Walmart parking lots. Park in well lit area. Do not open the door for anyone.
Once you get the address for the Walmart, you can view Walmart parking lots on www.googlemaps.com earth view and zoom.
You can park and sleep in all Florida rest areas, for up to three hours. Overnight camping is not permitted. That is technically correct, but conversations here indicate that security and LEO's are "relaxing' that rule a little. They do not want to put a tired driver back on the road. The tired driver is as dangerous as the drunk one.
