According to Brazilian reports of large trucks accidents on Federal Highway, fatigue and speeding are the major contributors to those accidents in which drivers are trying to meet short delivery deadlines for long hauls. A new federal law has been approved to limit truck drivers' working times, including maximum continuous driving time and maximum daily and weekly on-duty time. We present a study that aims at analyzing whether the existing resting areas on federal highways have sufficient capacity to meet current and future demand for truck stops. We have established the following method: In the first step, we review and study different models found in the literature and evaluate their potential application to Brazilian conditions; In the next step, we develop our own model and, finally, validate it using data from BR-101 Federal Highway, in Santa Catarina State. Tests made using part of collected data (which were subjected to statistical treatment) showed satisfactory results, indicating that the demand behavior was consistent with that observed in the field and the answers provided by truck drivers in the interviews. The research has yet to complete processing all data and it also must be repeated in other regions with different characteristics.
