    This is part of the industry. There are only a couple of States that restrict idiling CA and NY/NJ. Due to the high cost of an auxillary unit.To many O/O and companies cannot afford them.

    Most of New England is in there too, not to mention PA. Watch out for local laws too.

    I'm reefer so mostly I try to park away from non reefers. If a viable option, nose in between non reefers as courtesy. But to my surprise the quieter among you park next to me all the time voluntarily.

    I missed this the first time but I checked my records and I'm almost positive that is my truck. That was a flammable load going to Calgary and I was only taking a nap. It's either me or it could have been the other guy, we had the same load, but I'm pretty sure it's me. How freaking funny is that!
