    Hey my name is Jonathan W. And I am posting this thread seeking ideas from truck drivers on any possibilities to make life easier/helpful to you while you are on the road that could be as simple as an application on your phone to help with your commutes. I am seeking to design an app that could be readily available to the trucking community as a means of help in they're everyday lives on the road. Look forward to hearing your feedback on this discussion.

    designated safe parking with a spot to park in so drivers can park legally and know ahead of time where the break is going to be.

    Designated parking with sensors to indicate parking spot is empty/full. Driver will know the situation at a given lawful location that parks 18 wheelers the same way airport car park towers tell people what spaces open, how many and on what level...

    Im inclined to push back against phone apps in general. But I suppose for a lack of a better idea it will have to do somehow. There will be bandwidth costs from the millions of parking areas that are wired with sensors.

    I have spent too many nights crossing Virginia without a single spot anywhere for love or money outside of my logbook.
     
    Jdubbin757 Thanks this.
