You've read it, but it's wrong (which is why I posted the Texas code and every other state I've seen is the same).

A lot of truck stops have beer. If your gonna drink on your 34 be discreet about it.
Buy your booze then walk out through the car entrance, not the diesel door leading to the fuel pumps.
Put in a bag.
Saw a guy the other day openly carry a 12-pack back to his truck in broad daylight. If the wrong person sees that and calls it in, you could get in trouble.
Also stay off the CB. I was at a truck stop were some guy was drinking on his 34. He started playing “drunk CB Rambo” and was mouthing off to the other drivers.
His fatal words were “If your gonna tell me that to my face come over to truck 1234.”
The other guy called the cops to 1234 and they pulled him out of the truck.Last edited: Mar 5, 2021

Drinking beer through a straw is unorthodox, but I've seen a driver hide his tallboy inside a large soda fountain cup.

Don't park at bars , bag it and don't advertise it and only drink when you have at least 14 hours to stay parked .
Get rid of emptys and leftovers before hitting the road ...use common sence .

How and when?
Straight out of the bottle, and as soon as you wake up. Best way to prevent hangovers -
Some of the guys complain about long hours worked because it cuts into drinking time. Not me, I focus on my work and family. If she offers me another load I'm not complaining. I smile say thanks and take it to the bankHarry Flashman and tarmadilo Thank this.
