The highway beyond the fence roared steadily, a sound that made staying still feel pointless. Parker had driven for six hours to get here, and he still didn't know what 'here' meant. He stared at the rules sign and felt oddly grateful: at least something had decided what not to do." How does the setting contribute to Parker's characterization?
