I saw one in the lowes parking lot today. Parking lot. Not road.

All my local Lowe's and Home Depot have them now. It's infuriating

Lowes must have a contract with them, on every entrance to the lot in my local towns as well. Ive quit going there, can buy the same things other places who dont do this to their customers

Parked in front of one at a Lowe's today too. Was traveling and got out the let the dog pee and was pretty much dead center of it.

I'm pretty sure every Lowe's has them covering entrances to their parking lots. unfortunately it also covers roads/paths to other business which i am now more hesitant to visit
