Italy help at any time

I would park up at Civitavecchia , it is the port for Rome and cruise ship terminal.
From there train or bus to Rome which is an hour away.
I would not park in Rome due to risk of cab break in.
Another option is motorway services surrounded by Eastern European trucks with their engines running all day and night to power batteries to watch satellite TV.

You will need to prove you didn’t rest in the cab for 45 off with a hotel receipt, bath and shower in the hotel.
From November Ist in the UK , it is illegal to stay in the cab for a 45 but Europe has been illegal for a year or so .

I didn’t think Italy was upholding the ruling only Belgium, France and Germany and proof was only needed for those countries by their own authorities.
The UK has a 45 hr ban but it’s laybys and industrial estates not services or truck stops
