Rest Areas, Dumping Options

[WPB]

Has anyone else notice the trucks dumping their sewage in the parking lots of the rest areas. I witnessed this at a rest area on I-10 in Fla about 2 pm. He dumped it, jumped into the cab and took off. I informed the security people working at the desk, gave them the truck numbers/company. Don't know if anything was ever done about it, probably not. There was a dump station at the end of the lot too. Here in the Southeastern US I have noticed a sewer-age smell in the Truck/RV parking areas of the Rest Areas especially in the HOT summer months. I've also noticed small piles of old toilet paper packed on the asphalt. It never crossed my mind what was happening untill I saw the trucker dumping his holding tank. This practice is disgusting and un healthy. I am concerned that the RV community will get the blame for this. For those of you who are not aware, most of the trucks out there have toilets just like RV's. If you see this get the truck information and report them.

My brother and SIL drive an over the road truck and they do have a porta potty in the cab. You probably have witnessed them flicking their cigarette butts out the window. They were flicking them all over my driveway during a holiday party when I handed my brother a flashlight and told him to start picking them up. I think he was shocked at me but no one on my street smokes and I told him how low class they were to trash up my yard and street. So even though he is family I won't defend him. There are all kinds at there, hopefully there are more nice ones than not.
