    well I was parked along the edge of the Nash county rest area last night and had a jack wagon nc state police kick about six of us out of the rest area at 2am for ( illegal parking).
    I said I was out of hours and couldn't go back out on the road.
    He informed me that he didn't care.
    All this inforcement is all about safety though.....
    Just ask any dot officer.
    So at 2 am on I 95 north in nc at least 6 tired ,out of hours drivers are forced out on the highway.
    But it's always all about the safety of the public.
    All of the trucks were parked inside of the rest area just on the side because all the parking spots were taken.
    No lanes were blocked to the rest area either.

    If you WERE illegally parked, then sorry about your luck. Move on and think better next time. But if you KNOW you're not illegally parked, like @dog-c said, don't answer the door.

    Thats a tough one, fighting with law enforcment on the street is a losing battle even if your right your still wrong, only way you have a chance at beating them is with documentation in court

    you try to fight them, next thing you know your being arrested on some trumped up charges, and resisting arrest, and what ever else they want to make up, when their pride gets in the way

    You're lucky you were able to leave,
    Most rest areas are full of clods who park along the edges making it impossible to pull out of a legal spot.

    Curious... If you're on elogs and move your truck in the middle of a 10 causing drive time, do you gotta do a 10 all over again?
