I was just told it is illegal to spend the night in your camper in a rest area in Tennessee. Can anyone verify this? If this is indeed true, does it apply to other state's rest areas? How does on...

So we sleep in the day time and travel at night. My eye sight ain't so good at night. How am I going to tell if I just hit a deer or a pedestrian? It ain't safe to stop and look. Oh well, I guess I'll just stop at a campground and get a good nights sleep with out worrying about being evicted.
Please relate what has happened to you in a rest area. I am curious. Please do not give a friend of mines friend had something happen.What is it that makes you leery.
Campgrounds can be unsafe as well
I've pulled into a rest area to grab a couple of winks if I'm on the road and get tired. But the drivers seat tilted back is not comfortable. If I've got my RV, I'm not going to be a hurry to get anywhere and I'll look for a more suitable place to spend the night.
Compare complaints from campgrounds to rest areas. Why do some states have to have rest areas patrolled. I'm not leery, I'm able to take care of myself. It's easy to protect yourself if your prepared, I worry more about my loved ones. I have 3 family members in law enforement, 2 state and one sheriff dept. They can tell you stories that you might not want to hear.
