It reflects real corridor hotspots and the tactics used against loaded trucks.

  • Apply load security controls including seals, locks and immobilisers.
  • Train drivers in security awareness and safe conduct under threat.
  • Plan escorting, convoying and secure stopping for high risk loads.
  • Respond correctly to attempted hijackings and cargo attacks.
  • Investigate incidents and strengthen future load protection.
