The lights are left on so the driver can identify, and make his way back to his truck, when he gets up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom. Of course back then I hadn't read posts about the many uses of milk jugs and Gatorade bottles...

so, if your theory is correct, how does the driver know which lights are on HIS truck? or do you expect us to believe that there is only one truck in a rest stop?

Maybe he had unique lights.

except he didnt say it was paticular driver, just drivers in general. maybe he uses the lights to get back to the parking lot and then wanders around until he finds the right truck ..lets see... who do I work for this week??
