  A netizen from Shenyang, Liaoning Province left a message: "I am a truck driver. Parking at night is too difficult in the current expressway service area, and there are not enough parking spaces. Can you increase the service area and expand some service areas? This will also prevent truck drivers from fatigued driving. , to reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents. Can we use the original provincial toll stations as parking lots? Now the provincial toll stations have been circled and have not played a role. Our drivers are also willing to pay for the parking lot charges. "

  The Ministry of Transport replied, "We fully agree with the suggestion made by the commenter to transform the provincial toll station into a parking area." The Ministry of Transport will actively guide all regions in coordinating emergency response, maintenance, service, supervision and inspection and public security investigation.

There are still trucks in some major transportation lines and expressway service areas in the surrounding areas of large and medium-sized cities.
