    Like most companies they will probably tell him to roll and if he gets popped put it back on him.

    If you are at 35140 you'll probably have to slide them more than 2 holes back to get legal.

    I-380 north to Cedar Rapids, US 151 goes east with US 30 on the south side of Cedar Rapids, the other 151 business route goes through town with multi stop lights. East of Cedar Rapids, 151 then goes north- northeast towards Wisconsin.

    Judging by how insignificant this "problem" is, I'd take a wild guess and say op only considers pfj,ta/p,loves as suitable "truck stops"...
