When you head into the Northeast it's a lot more crowded and for that reason you see more trucks, COOL TRUCKS! We pick up a load of foam (yes foam) and start heading up 95 to New Jersey and Massachusetts.

The many, mainly foreign, drivers that don't avail themselves of the excellent 'routier' restaurants here in France always struggle for parking at the autoroute service areas. And that is where we see them, just like you showed, parked along the sides of the entry and exit roads. Not satisfactory, either from a safety or comfort point of view. Wouldn't catch me doing that Jack, I like the 'restos' too much. ;-)

I'm local, and up until last week, liked it a lot. They changed the way we operate, and now we have to backhaul. It wouldn't be bad, except they way they do it is to book a backhaul load AFTER we leave out for the day. So now we went from local home nightly, to not knowing each day when we leave IF we'll get home or not.

I don't understand why the truck stops don't have food courts like the malls do. That way the truckers would be able to chose what they want instead of always eating the heavy greasy stuff with little opportunity to eat proper veggies and fruit if they want it. A reasonable food court with a good salad bar.

Hi Jack, that's too bad. I haven't taken a survey, but I would be willing to bet that truckers have some of the worst diets out there, mostly due to always being in a rush to get somewhere else, so they pick the fast easy stuff. Some one's gotta come up with some fast healthy food.

When you're running up 95 you take it all the way up to the GW Bridge. Just before the bridge you get over to 17 North. You take that about 20 miles then get on 287 East. That will take you back towards 95 and you don't have to pay $105 to get over the George Washington
