    Definitely would not be camping at this rest area. Wondering if the super ego driver tried knocking on the other guys door or not?

    Why would he do that? It's a whole lot easier to hop a curb, tear up your plastic bumper, drive thru a bunch of mud.... call a tow truck

    The one near Brigham City, UT is horrible. Whoever designed it should be fired.

    I'm surprised you could even park there with all the stupid RVer's that are usually blocking everything. The last few times I was there, I swear there are people that live there in their cars

    I'd have been furiously banging on the other clown's door and making him back up a bit.

    It's that way at many rest areas. Pull up too far and the person next to you can't get out, don't pull in far enough and no one can squeeze in to the spot next to you. And there does not seem to be a sweet spot.

    And "furiously banging on the other clown's door and making him back up a bit" might work, or it might get you shot in the face.
