in Maine? probably 90% of the state. I've car camped a few times rest stops/gas stations have bright lights but you won't be bothered.

This is my take, laws already exist but LE can be super selective about enforcement.

Photographer Ethan Eisenhaur recently captured this incredible photo of a Maine lynx using a trail camera.
The picture was taken using a DSLR camera trap set up in the western mountains of the state, Eisenhaur said. The camera functions similarly to a game camera and takes a series of pictures when movement is detected.
He shared the picture on Facebook Friday.
Lynx are known to be elusive and fewer than 1,000 are believed to live in Maine, according to the state department of Inland Wildlife and Fisheries.
Eisenhaur grew up in Maine’s western mountains, according to a bio on his website.
“I have always enjoyed spending as much time as I can in the wilderness,” his website states.

There are some warming shelters in churches or around buildings like that, that have free parking lots for overnight parking only a 5-7 minute walk from the areas. I know Augusta has a few and other big cities.
Edit: typo

I don’t understand your point. Doctors and attorneys make their money from wages and are still wealthy. Working class doesn’t mean you’re inherently poor.

If there's free continental breakfast you can usually walk in and eat totally unnoticed.

I’m lol imagining Gordon Ramsey ripping this idiotic sign off the wall. In rangeley there are not a lot of options so they can do what they want.

For newer stuff I’d want to be able to have it be functional. Vintage stuff can be nonfunctional

The deficiency is that there's no training, as they don't recognize Maine's right to repair unless forced

Completely agree and I’m aware that sometimes a Silver alert can be triggered when the person is older or has a disability and they are in danger. I know it was used in this case but it’s still so frustrating because I know that both of them are very much loved by a huge community of people. I have known Angela since I was younger and she can be difficult to understand on the phone. I wish that there’s something that people could volunteer to help find her. Thanks for your reply and sorry if I was a bit harsh but this really sucks and I pray that they are found safe

There's not much information out there yet, but based on this specific language, it appears that they only intent it to apply to vehicles operating on a public way.

“Capitalist class” is a meaningless title in a nation where 95% of political platforms revolve around some form of capitalism. This isn’t a paradox studios game. Just say wealthy people.

Came out great, soon as it’s done peeling I’m going to post it. I have a fresh picture but a couple of the darker spots swelled like hell unfortunately

On the one hand I've seen some of the stuff tourists pull up there. On the other hand, come on, Nancy. On the other, other hand, half the restaurants are closed half the week and the other half run out of half their menu items midway through Saturday dinner rush, so, captive audience.

No problem! This is really troublesome that someone hasn’t found them. I heard earlier that they were going to try to get planes up but there might’ve been a problem with cloud cover. I will be thinking of them and you.
