That’s good news for me. I like stopping at TravelCenters of America because they have everything I need on the road.

they are not very convenient for me. They are either too far away from my routes or too close to major cities

+ They need to take care of the ones they’ve already got open some of them are really bad and it would be nice if they would open up the restaurants again

Overpriced fuel, overpriced fast food, overpriced C-store and more paid parking? Can’t wait!

+ Bring back the restaurants, instead of fast food. Weather TA/Petro brand or leased, we need to have access to decent food and to sit down to unwind.

Once a driver's clock starts, he must stay in motion regardless of conditions or physical health. Racing the clock and shutting down in adverse places. I noticed a huge difference in behavior once elogs became mainstream. Nothing is more safe than a driver operating under his/hers terms within reason

Easy. Most states dont harass us over east as badly as the more westward states do. Im actually surprised it was Iowa that stopped him. Theyre usually pretty cool. Over my career, ive noticed I can easily do an OTR run with minor trailer issues and be just fine, most states leave us alone, its only a few that have A**HOLE overly aggressive DOTs. (cali, washington, idaho, etc)

It's not designed for a driver. It's designed to be autonomous. The driver is a necessary inconvenience until the bugs get worked out and the laws get changed.
