Perhaps I am mistaken but the "real issue" of this thread is that a driver received a parking ticket because he parked in the dirt area at the top of the off-ramp.

There is no way of knowing whether all of the available parking spaces in the rest area were taken, because the driver did not
enter the rest area to find out.

The driver was tired and made an error in judgement. We've all been there. For the driver's own safety, it's a never a good idea to pull off to the side of an exit ramp - where other vehicles are exiting the freeway at high speeds - and another driver more tired than you might make an error in judgement and rear-end you.

he probably parked in a big enough dirt spot where the ramps aren't an issue. cali has a ton of huge dirt spots.

Booooo! The OP made no mention of an 'evil' California or of being 'commies.' Don't miss the real issue here of parking problems nationwide. Have you not seen the pathetic overcrowded rest areas at 3:00 a. m. where 40 semis are crammed into an area with 15 or 20 spaces and spilling out into both the off and on ramps? It is unbelievable and unfortunately many people would be appalled if they witnessed such a spectical, but it only happens while normal people are sleeping and elves are baking cookies. It's a tragedy and something needs to be done.

I'm one who knows the helpless feeling of creeping slowly through an area hoping to find even an illegal parking spot only to pull back onto the interstate desperately needing a break. It sucks and something needs to be done about it.

Get rid of the solar trucks and there just might be some room at the truck stops later at night
