I think we've also observed that more people map than fix: and

There are three access cases for non-hgv's:  prohibited by sign, unstated
probably permissive, permitted by sign.  All three exist.
The common unstaffed weigh station in the American west has everything
locked up, it's either a rest area or the rest area is separate.
It's pretty useless to stop.

If it's a permissive rest area,* I argue it should be mapped as a rest
area.*
