    How can I have good rest and drive safe then if Western Express decide to train student park truck next to my truck in PILOT, Cheyenne.
    Take him to training course for 2 hours honking not around my truck. I need good sleep.

    Get out and put your reflectors out with a sign. " No student training area, Reserved for OTR trucks that need the rest".

    First Step....Let offender know that they do that Air-Horn training elsewhere, If this does not solve it peacefully.....contact a bail-bondsman BEFORE you start swinging the crow-bar.

    I wouldn't care if they just backed up beside me, but if they're blowing the horn before they back, they'll meet me real quick.

    I taught my students to back at truckstops, but no honking and it was at big truckstops in the far back.

    Newbies are taught to always blow the horn right before backing up. A practice quickly forgotten in the real world because it's stupid only topped by trucks that have reverse beeps.

    Truckstops aren't a good place for #### near anything. Too many antisocial lowlife truckers there who ruin everything.
