Truckers do NOT like you taking one of "their" spots are rest areas.
Places like WalMart allow overnight parking in some places.....but not all.
So when are truckers the only one allowed to stop at a rest stop?
I did NOT say that, now did I ??
We are talking about staying overnight, not just stopping.
And while I don't totally agree with it, I can understand their point. Driving is their JOB. Laws require them to stop every XX hours and places to do that are not abundant. In some states, even the "rest areas" only have a few spots.
If regulations don't prohibit it, go ahead and park overnight in a "truck" spot at a rest area. But expect that you might not get much rest.
