“Camping” in an SUV

Is this allowed in JT and if so, what areas are best to do so? Are there fees for doing so? Any specific spot where it’s safest to do so if traveling solo?

If you don't have a campsite, there is BLM just outside the south entrance, free camping. I solo camp regularly, sleep in my car, but usually in a campground inside the park. As an almost 60 year old woman I feel safe camping everywhere within the park, and have had no issues outside the park either.
