Europe
Both the frequency and quality of European rest areas differ from country to country. In some countries such as Spain rest areas are uncommon - motorists are directed to establishments that serve both the travelling public and the local population while in other countries access to a rest area is impossible, other than from a motorway. The Dutch rest area De Lucht (see picture to the right) is typical of many European rest areas.

Famous quotes containing the word europe:
“The confrontation between America and Europe reveals not so much a rapprochement as a distortion, an unbridgeable rift. There isn’t just a gap between us, but a whole chasm of modernity.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
“When Paris sneezes, Europe catches cold.”
—Prince Metternich (1773–1859)
“For it does not follow because many books are written by persons born in America that there exists an American literature. Books which imitate or represent the thoughts and life of Europe do not constitute an American literature. Before such can exist, an original idea must animate this nation and fresh currents of life must call into life fresh thoughts along its shores.”
—Margaret Fuller (1810–1850)
