Truck driver has no reliable way to find safe, legal overnight parking for his semi-trailer, and is woken up by authorities or other drivers who force him to move.

Workarounds Described

• Parks in empty dirt lots to avoid knock-on-door confrontations
• Parks on curb along edge despite trash cans, moving only when told to
• Tight maneuvering into a space others avoid to avoid driving elsewhere

Implied Software Gaps

• App that shows legal overnight parking spots and allows reservation
• Real-time notification and two-way communication between drivers and lot managers to avoid midnight disturbances
• Crowdsourced spot quality and safety ratings to avoid problematic locations

Park My Rig

Park My Rig is a mobile app that helps truck drivers find, reserve, and pay for safe, legal overnight parking spots near their route. It crowdsources real-time availability from truck stops, warehouses, and private lots, and includes features like time limits, accessibility ratings, and direct communication with lot owners. No more knocking on doors or risking fines.
