Can you sleep in a rental car?
I can work remotely so I’m debating traveling the country and working on my laptop using my 5G hotspot. Just making sure it’s not against the law, can I sleep in a rental car?

We love it—you’re the modern digital nomad! You’ll want to check your rental agreement, but you can usually sleep in a rental car. They technically wouldn’t know if you did.

Common places to sleep in your car include highway rest stops, paid campsites, and 24-hour shopping centers.
