Seems like a bad time drive cross country. If they must just take I-80 over to by Scranton PA I-380 to I-84 up to Boston. The I-495 to I 95 to Maine.
They have to get thru Wy and they have been closeing the interstate my time this year because of snow for a couple days. That means sleep and eating in car and bathroom on side of the roads or a bucket.
I'm not sure what the hotel stuff is like know. Most state are take out only on food. Some states like NJ are making then close all restaurant at 8pm I think PA is doing that also. Sounds like your parents must be a little lose in the head or enjoy trouble. They closed the rest area in PA on I-80. States have that stay home rule unless it's essential. Not sure how serious they are about that.
Getting a hotel room seem like it would be a problem. Do they want to sleep in same bed as another person who might have the virus. Hotel would no be someplace I would be sleeping right now. . they don't clean them rooms good on a regular day. Now you got the employees probably not happy to be working. If they even show up to work. -
If they have to travel it could be done but they have to avoid people.
Use credit cards at the gas pump carry food ,water and your own toilet paper.
Book a room ahead of time. Wear gloves out of the car and disinfect everything.Midwest Trucker Thanks this. -

I think we are entering a time in which travelers and tourists are seen as a threat by locals in small towns.
And also balanced by human normal need to get out of crowded towns and cities to seek solitude and quiet. So it's a ongoing problem. -
My advice would be there is nothing you can do.....you can’t fix stupid
