Love's will put them out of business. More driver will go to truck stop with free parking. TA/Petro used to have big parking lots. Since they blocked lots of them off for paid parking. The free stuff fills up by 4pm. The advantage of big parking lot is gone. You go to Love's or any other truck stop you have same chance of getting free parking. So why even go to TA/Petro. They will put themselves out of business because they don't have any advantage anymore. Now with loves adding more truck stop. They have less advantage because their truck stop are old and paid parking and restaurants that close at night

TA is the worst when it comes to reserved parking in my opinion. Some of the TA's in Maryland have gates on them and it's $20 if you're parked there for over 2 hours. Reserved parking has its benefits but drivers still ruin it. For instance, I reserved a spot at the Carlisle FJ, paid for it, then when I got there all the reserved spots were full cause people feel entitled to park wherever they want even if that means ruining someone else's day. Had to sleep on an on ramp that night

The TA in West Oklahoma City had a security guard that shot a driver when he wasn’t ecstatic about being told to move at 2AM.
Alleged Fight Over Parking Spot Leads To Shooting At SW OKC Travel Center
Which is more likely: A sleepy driver charges a security guard with a firearm or the security guard declared himself Dirty Harry sheriff of the parking lot and shot a driver because he said something that made him angry?
