    I've parked on streets that had a sign every #### inch... Cops drive by all day like your not even there.I've pulled over to check messages and seems like before I even set the brakes, blue lights were behind me

    I doubt a LEO will be enforcing no parking signs inside a Walmart DC.

    Sure he can. And they will. When Wal-Mart says, driver you need to leave... " I'm a paying customer blah blah blah, I bring your freight blah blah blah", they will call the police..

    At this point will be for trespassing, not for parking, Most walmarts are not trucker friendly, Your trailer emoty, then you must exit the property, Try this next time your at a dc, and need to finish your 10, put a seal on your trailer, they my think your waiting for a door, I've been at a DC when they didnt have a door availible for me and had me park and wait, I dont know this will work, but Id try if my e-log ran out

    Park in a commerical area zoned commerical if you can find it. Maryland loves to had out parking tickets to truck parked in "residential zone".

    This might help too, www.parkmyrig.com

    Park as far away as you can from a no parking sign.I once parked my bobtail in front of a no parking sign and got a reckless charge for it in Mass.It's old now but never again will I park anywhere near a no parking sign in my car or trk.

    If I park at a business like Walmart I always patronize the business. I also park out of the way.

    Don't bet your hard earned money on those signs being never enforced!

    Actually no one really CAN answer your question. There are too many variables.

    And then there are the parking lot construction specifications themselves. While the loading dock area and approaches may be designed for the weight of big trucks, the customer parking may well NOT be designed to withstand that much weight. A questionable way to cut construction costs, but it is done all the time.
