One of the first things to do is think,quite and act fast by blowing your air horn, turn on your lights and look for any kind of object that can be used as a weapon, just incase that person tires to enter your truck. Keep in mind, you are safer inside that truck and the only time you are allowed to use deadly force is if that person enters your home with intent to kill or be killed. If you get out the safety of your truck ,now the laws have changed,.If you own a firearm and carrying inside your truck for protection. You are taking a chance on going to prison for the next 5 to 10 years because each state have different laws. Bear spray is a better choice than going to prison. Just remember to stay in the truck, because it could be a hijacking and once you get out,someone could be standing by in the dark. Watch where you park, keep your doors locked at all times and call 911,if someone does try to break in.Think before you act. Or use deadly force. Don't you be the one going to prison for the next ten years. Go home to your family.
Excellent response! I want others to read what you said because it's very important. You brought up some great points, and getting out of the truck does change things. Lot's to unpack, but don't pack for prison. Stay on the right side of the law. @elwinhines3364 Thanks for your great input and comment.
I don't think someone would do that at a truck stop surounded by truckers which some of them would help most likely. But who knows where you are going to be at.

Nice point. If someone isn't in their right mind, it could happen anywhere. Lots of trucks get stolen from crowded truck stops also. Just never know.
