Services
Along Interstate 75 are 9 pairs of rest areas along the length of the freeway. In addition, there are separate facilities for each direction of I-75 in Hamilton (southbound) and Suwannee (northbound) Counties and a welcome center south of the state line. Exits 131 and 161 each have a single facility accessible from both travel directions on I-75, as well as the intersecting highway. Each rest area has rest rooms, vending machines, picnic tables, dog walk areas and nighttime security. The welcome center also has travel information and free orange juice.
Motorist-aid call boxes are located on both outside shoulders of the road every mile (1.6 km), and send a signal indicating the need for gasoline, repair (tire or engine), or emergency services (police, ambulance, or firefighters). Call boxes can also be found at some rest areas.

Famous quotes containing the word services:
“I see this evident, that we willingly accord to piety only the services that flatter our passions.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
“It seems I impregnated Marge
So I do rather feel, by and large,
Some cash should be tendered
For services rendered,
But I can’t quite decide what to charge.”
—Anonymous.
“The community and family networks which helped sustain earlier generations have become scarcer for growing numbers of young parents. Those who lack links to these traditional sources of support are hard-pressed to find other resources, given the emphasis in our society on providing treatment services, rather than preventive services and support for health maintenance and well-being.”
—Bernice Weissbourd (20th century)
