Question: Should The BackUp Alarm On A Truck Be Optional?
Option 1: Yes votes: 8
Option 2: No votes: 8
Title: Making the Truck Horn, Backup Alarm, Enable/Disable feature.

My suggestion is simple. Sometimes when your backing up in game in a truck the horn gets really annoying and repetitive. My suggestion is in the /preferences menu we add a enable/disable feature for this horn. This way if you like the back up beep you can keep it, if not you can disable it..

It's mainly there to alert others to you reversing. Don't see why it can't be disabled though

well it is annoying but definitely need. When a convoy is unloading and someone reverses others can't notice and get rammed which goes to reports and so on

Voted for "No" since that horn is useful.  :)

seriously, how many people pay attention to a reverse alarm? Most of us either have music playing loud, speakers turned off or we simply don't notice it. The only time I hear it is when the music is switched off and when I'm the one reversing....and it's annoying as hell.

2nd of all, I got idiots ramming me of the road for overtaking them, for simply being on the road, for waiting at the toll or because their peepee is too small. Someone reversing, not being able to hear the reverse beep and causing a crash, excuse me for talking on behalf of others, but it's the least of our problems.

Anyway, it doesn't bother me but would be nice to be able to switch it off.

Yeah agreed! It would just be nice to have a toggle, this way if your listening to music or recording a video that toggle is nice to have!

Ah yes, didnt even see it. Hopefully with your strong vote toward yes it will work. Its only a Convoy Trucking feature but it would be awesome to have the ability to enable/disable

Or if you know anything about GTAs sound banks, I guess you could replace the truck horn sound with a no sound thing.

I could replace Bank 68 sound 10 but considering I did already with something other then a horn I guess I'm one step ahead. Still doesn't conflict with my suggestion.
