************ or bad manners?

Regarding: Diesel refuelling station on our neighbour’s farm (Ged 1021 van Hartbee****rt B, wolwekraal , losperfontein, brits), which according to the municipality and road administration still does not have business rights or petroleum rights. As from Dec 2016 this property has suddenly started operating as a diesel refuelling station for the trucks of the Reinhardt transport cc company. We as the neighbours were never informed verbally or in writing that this property was going to be used for this purpose. Neither was there ever any notices posted on their fences or in the local newspapers that this property will be used in this way. If you look on the google maps you will notice that the extra diesel tanks only went up in March 2017. The business operates 7 days a week and now also 24hrs a day. When the trucks of the Reinhardt company (which include transmac trucks, Reinhardt trucks, bafkile trucks and cds logistics) enter the refuelling station they hoot several times on the property. Today 12 July between 6:12am - 08:21am four different trucks already hooted on the property. We also have to listen to the drivers, diesel attendend who talks at the top of their voices. The past few days as a bonus we have also had to listen to blaring music coming from the property, even at 24:39 at night. Bear in mind that there is a sign on the front gate stating that the truck drivers are not allowed to hoot etc, but it is not enforced at all. While the trucks are waiting in line to fuel up they all stand in a row alongside our inner fence, which makes it a serious privacy concern for us as these trucks stands for hours alongside the fence with the drivers looking directly onto us and our property. This feels like serious ************ to us. The diesel refuelling station is unpaved which means that each time a truck enters the property a dust cloud passes over our house. This gets so bad at times that we cannot even go outside at times. (The refuelling station does not have a water tanker so the dust continues from morning till night).
