Never seen that happen here in the West, John. In fact, the scarcity of policing in formal rest areas is one of the problems. Long-haul semi-truckers sometimes spend the night in such places; but it's considered a risk to the general public in ordinary cars. Maybe at really congested Freeway rest areas with limited parking area there might logically be an objection to staying there for long. But if they didn't want anyone to take actual breaks, why are most them equipped with picnic tables? The whole point, besides providing restrooms, is to keep overly fatigued drivers off the road a little while.
