How Long Can You Rest at a Highway Service Area?

[Pamela]

There is no time limit for parking and resting at a highway service area. However, if a vehicle remains in the highway network for more than 24 hours or drives on the same highway for more than 12 hours, an overtime fee will be charged. Here are some precautions to take when resting at a highway service area: 1. Pay attention to speed when entering or exiting the service area: When entering the service area, be sure to slow down in advance, as there are usually speed limits on the ramp and within the service area. 2. Before leaving your car in the service area, remember to secure any valuables inside the vehicle. 3. Avoid wandering around the service area: Service areas do not have barriers or partitions, and moving around freely can be dangerous, especially due to the large blind spots of trucks, which may lead to accidents.
