Last week I pulled into the rest area I use a lot for my 1/2 hr break, it's well lighted and has restrooms. I set my alarm for 40 minutes and went to sleep I woke up hearing a click-click that sounded familiar it took a second to realize that it was the sound of my door handle being pulled out and it springing back! (yes it was locked) I jumped up and pulled back the curtain and saw someone getting into the passenger seat of a car and taking off.
This was on NY Rt 17 WB at the Eastbrook rest area,I've never had any problems here before but I do remember seeing lots of cops there one night and the only other vehicle was a big truck.

What can I say? It's not like I'm paid by the hour.
