For all location information, whether it's our location information or crowdsourced data, our digital cartographers, on a daily basis, are reaching out to truck stops and rest areas, including Walmart parking facilities, to validate current status before we push it out to the products. Althought we can't commit to it being 100% accurate, we are working diligently to fact check statuses and amenity information before publishing.
During these unprecedented and uncertain times, some essential break locations for drivers are closing completely, or closing certain amenities, like showers and restaurants. To help navigate this ever-changing information, we have launched a free web app that displays truck stop status and amenity information, where available. The goal is to help our community understand which locations are closed and which conveniences are open for drivers.
Currently available in North America only.

Help us help drivers
By using our FREE COVID-19 Safe Haven web app, you can easily tell us whether a truck stop or rest area is open or closed, or what amenities and conveniences are available. Simply tap or click “Open” or “Closed” or tap on the amenity to change its status. We'll then verify the information, and get it updated in our apps as soon as possible.

To further reduce uncertainty and alleviate stress for drivers, MileOn by PC*MILER, our driver trip planning app, will utilize the same data to help make sure closed rest areas or truck stops are not displayed as break locations in a driver’s trip plan.
MileOn also has and Hours of Service feature to suggest where and when to break, verified parking information in 8 states, allowing drivers to see how many parking spots are available at particular locations, and helps the driver know what's ahead with real-time traffic congestion and weather alerts.
