Clean Rest Area

This is a clean and well maintained test area. There is security here during the overnight. I spoke to the security guard and he said that the rest area is very safe. He said that he is mostly here to ensure that semi trucks do not park across car spots. There is some road noise but it quiets down later in the evening.
