Mineta Transportation Institutes' Report States the Obvious

The recent research and findings report of the Mineta Transportation Institute for the Department of Homeland Security is 95 pages of industry known "...duh" information. If your fleet has a solid Security Plan with training and enforcement, you are likely well ahead of these findings. It still doesn't hurt to revisit this information and refresh some of the obvious information and you may even be reminded of something you have not been implementing.

If your drivers are conscience of their surroundings and practice treating your equipment like its their new Porsche (don't leave it unlocked while unattended, don't leave it running while unattended, keep a tight lip on their commodity and trip information, etc), you will make it less attractive for your tanker to be stolen and the hot story on all the local and cable news outlets.
