    That rest area needs to be closed. It's a highway hazard. You exit the rest area onto a already overly congested 2 lane interstate. Cars begin to scramble to keep from hitting you... Then just as you get to around 45-50 mph... Maybe 55 mph I-985 merges into I-20 so another 3 lanes of overly congested traffics gets to dodge, swerve, & miss you as you try to merge to the right & obey Georgia's no trucks in the left 2 lanes law.
