Free Wi-Fi on New York Thruway

By Glenn Fleishman

The New York Thruway has free Wi-Fi at 27 travel plazas: The growth of Wi-Fi (free and paid) at highway stopover locations has run in fits and starts, with some states announcing and then canceling plans, and others just tootling along and suddenly announcing a major deployment. The service is intended for indoor use, it sounds like, but I expect enterprising truckers may use high-gain adapters.

It would be nice for truckers to be able to compute from their cabs. The company I am leased to sends my load information and permits to me on my outlook express and I can keep in closer touch with my other 2 trucks and family via e-mail. Please consider letting the wifi signal be strong enough to use from the parking lots. Trucks pay a bunch more than cars in tolls, so wifi would be a nice concession. Iowa has free wifi at their rest areas. All this new electronic stuff available now really makes our lives better when we are away from home weeks at a time. Thanks--Jeanne Irwin
