    Flying J I81 ex 323 Va. For a split second I thought we were going to have to call our resident hall monitor to clean up the cluster that appeared to be this J. had trucks 2 and 3 deep waiting to fuel. turns out , EVERY driver there was efficient and moved right along, They musta read this thread.

    That place is always packed but seems to move along.Sometimes the parking lot becomes a zoo, but normally little or no wait for showers.

    Ain't that the Haw River J? If so, I used to stop there regularly back in the day. Clean showers, decent parking, and fairly decent food, as I recall.

    I seriously just saw this.

    A Mexican driver pulls up to a fuel island. When he stops, one of the 5-6 playing children smacks into the dashboard.

    THIS is how many people exit the truck.

    Male driver

    adult female

    another adult male

    about five children, maybe six.

    The driver starts fueling and he and two boys from in the truck get up on the catwalk and proceed to urinate between the truck and trailer... WEIRD!

    The girls went inside, presumably to use the restroom.

    I don't know what happened next. I took off after I finished fueling. I was there before they arrived.

    Is Whizzing on the drive line against the fuel island rules?
