rest areas
Rest areas are designated locations along highways or major roads where travelers can pause to rest, refresh, and tend to personal needs. They typically offer amenities such as parking, clean restrooms, picnic areas, and sometimes vending machines or information booths. Rest areas help improve safety by reducing driver fatigue, preventing accidents caused by tired driving. They provide a convenient, accessible stop for travelers to relax briefly before continuing their journey, contributing to safer and more comfortable long-distance travel.
