Why are so many rest stops closed?
I'm heading west from NC on my way to Los Angeles along I-40. I've noticed that about 30% of the rest stops are closed. Why is that? Is it because of budget cuts, restoration, abuses by travelers? ...
Forum Discussion
When it comes to budget cuts, politicians usually chop the stuff that produces the least repercussions from the voters (as in not getting re-elected!). Since rest stops are often used by travelers from out of state, the actual number of people that would be angry about the rest stop closures and could do something about it is small.
