3 Intoduction This epot was published in coodination with BSI and the National Vehicle Cime Intelligence Sevice (NaVCIS). NaVCIS is a United Kingdom police unit that utilizes vehicle cime intelligence fom egional U.K. police foces, as well as Euopean law enfocement agencies, to tack feight cime incidents, epot ciminal tends, and poduce effective industy solutions. The U.K. cago thefts and tends epot ceated in patneship with BSI and NaVCIS seeks to highlight majo aeas of concen, tageted modalities and commodities, and theft tactics utilized thoughout the United Kingdom. Each oganization has the goal of helping companies stay infomed on cago theft isks in the county, and ultimately poviding assistance to pevent feight cimes. Cago feight cime pevention in the United Kingdom is a citical issue since the county is a majo souce of tade and the thid lagest economy in Euope. Excluding the United States and China, the county pimaily conducts tade with neighboing Euopean counties, esulting in a lage exchange of goods being impoted and expoted in the county. BSI assesses that companies lost at least an estimated 54 million ($76 million) due to cago theft in 2017, demonstating the significant amount of commece lost in the county annually. Howeve, taking into account limitations in cago cime collection, BSI anticipates that this loss value is likely much highe. BSI s quately epot analyzing nationwide tends, hot spot locations, and ciminal tactics helps shippes and law enfocement agencies to establish and implement stong measues to dete cago cimes. Nationwide Tends BSI ecoded 454 theft incidents fom cago vehicles in the United Kingdom duing the fist quate of BSI assesses that 80 pecent of these incidents involved cago theft cimes, with the emaining 20 pecent of incidents involving thefts of fuel, vehicle pats, and dive pesonal belongings. Although not as valuable as thefts of cago loads, these peipheal incidents highlight cago tuck vulneabilities and exhibit the potential fo ciminals to expand these types of theft opeations to taget cago shipments. BSI evaluates that most cago theft incidents occued in the cente and easten locations of the United Kingdom. In Q1 of 2018, Nottinghamshie, Nothamptonshie, and Kent, followed by Leicesteshie and Bedfodshie, wee the top five counties fo cago theft. Nottinghamshie, which is often within the top tie of counties fo cago theft, saw a lage spike in incidents duing the fist two months of the quate. BSI attibutes this to a ecent ise in geneal cime in the aea duing the fist quate of All five of these counties ae positioned along the motoway, which seves as a majo tansit oute fo cago that uns noth-south though the United Kingdom.

4 Cago Theft by Type Cago Theft by County 21% Nottinghamshie 1 Theft of Tuck 3% 43% Nothamptonshie 14% Theft fom Tuck 13% Slash and Gab 63% Cago thieves in the United Kingdom occasionally implement sophisticated o violent methods to steal goods fom cago facilities o vehicles. Howeve, thieves most fequently use the slash-and-gab tactic to steal cago in the county duing the fist quate of the yea. This method accounted fo nealy 63 pecent of all cago theft incidents duing the fist quate. The slash-andgab tactic involves thieves cutting into the tapaulins of soft-sided cago tucks. Cago tucks tanspoting feight with soft-sided tailes ae most at isk to cago theft in the United Kingdom. Thieves can easily open soft-sided tailes with a knife, allowing ciminals to move swiftly between tucks to choose which loads ae most valuable and steal cago. Shippes elying on this modality should ensue that tanspotes ae utilizing additional secuity measues to mitigate cago theft isks, such as einfoced taps. Anothe majo theft tactic involves thieves cutting the back locks of tailes to unload and steal cago. theft incidents that BSI ecoded in the fist quate of this yea involved fictitious pick-ups, hijackings, in-tansit tuck thefts, and thefts of whole cago vehicles. Unsecue Paking Risks and Tips BSI has epeatedly epoted on the issues of cago tucks elying of off-oad laybys and industial estates, fo ovenight paking. Tucks that ely on these paking locations fo ovenight est ae extemely vulneable to ciminal activity. Companies should ensue that thei tanspot povides utilize lists of ageed upon secue ovenight paking locations to ensue that dives ae not foced to ely on off-oad laybys. Tanspotes should ty to avoid a high eliance on U.K. oadways, such as the A1, A43, and A14, since these outes often lack sufficient paking facilities fo ovenight est and may foce tanspotes to use laybys to meet est equiements. Bedfodshie 8% Leicesteshie 9% Kent 11% How to Choose Secue Paking Utilizing secue paking facilities is one of the fist steps to peventing cago fom being stolen. Tanspotes should ideally look fo locations fo ovenight est that include: Peimete Fencing CCTV Camea Suveillance Entance/Exit Secuity Checkpoint Police Suveillance Feight Vehicle Specific Lots Pesent Sufficient Lighting Consistent with 2017 tends, most cago theft incidents that BSI ecoded in the fist quate of 2018 occued at highway est aeas, followed by unsecue off-oad locations such as laybys. The counties of Bedfodshie, West Yokshie, Leicesteshie, and Kent had some of the geatest numbe of cago theft and fuel theft incidents at est aeas duing the fist quate of Cago thieves in the United Kingdom often opeate in epetitive and identifiable pattens, typically stiking the same est stops o locations multiple times to exploit identified secuity vulneabilities. Rest aeas along the motoway wee most vulneable to theft, and at least 63 cago theft incidents occued at est aeas off the motoway. Duing the fist quate of 2018, the Toddington est aea in Dunstable, Bedfodshie expeienced the geatest numbe of cago theft incidents on the motoway. This is lagely due to insufficient secuity at this est aea, which lacks fencing and a sepaation of cago and passenge vehicles at lots. Rest aeas on the M62 and M40 motoways wee the second and thid most common locations of thefts on highways, espectively. In egads to all cago cime incidents ecoded by BSI in the fist quate of 2018, which includes thefts of diesel fuel and tuck pats, most incidents of thefts at laybys occued in Bedfodshie and Kent, followed by Nothamptonshie and Nottinghamshie. Nealy all cago theft incidents that occued at laybys wee located on U.K. highway tanspotation outes, which ae pimaily boken up into lage motoways and subsequently smalle oadways. BSI assesses that oadways, such as the A1, A43, A14, and A2, expeienced the geatest numbe of cago theft incidents that occued on laybys. Anothe notable tend is that few layby thefts occued on U.K. motoways, such as the and M20, demonstating a much geate pesence of paking facilities on motoway tanspotation outes than the counties oadway systems. Secue paking emains one of the geatest challenges to mitigating the isk of cago theft in the United Kingdom. The insufficient quantity of secue paking locations often foces cago tuck dives to utilize insecue aeas, such as sevice aeas, laybys and industial estates, exposing vehicles to both oppotunistic and oganized ciminals.

Howeve, these locations ae geneally lit and populated with othe tanspotes, leaving tucks slightly less vulneable than unsecue off-oad sites which leave tucks completely exposed to cago ciminals. As in pevious quates, most cago theft incidents occued duing the middle of the week, paticulaly on s and s. Thefts on these days account fo nealy 45 pecent of all incidents duing the quate.

This tend can be attibuted to weekend Police Opeations Tackling Cago Theft NaVCIS assists vaious U.K. police foces to impove secuity fo feight tansiting the U.K. and mitigate cago theft isks. The oganization is a majo pat of Opeation BARRIC, which is led by Nothamptonshie police in collaboation with Leicesteshie, Debyshie, Nottinghamshie, and Lincolnshie law enfocement agencies, and Opeation Hollow, which involves Essex, Kent, and Suffolk police foces. NaVCIS has paticipated in seveal aests following Q1 including: Apil 19: West Yokshie police aested a cago thief esponsible fo tageting a tuck paked at a est aea off the M62 motoway in the city of Knottingly.

BSI ecognizes that it can be challenging fo shippes to utilize moe secue shipping modalities fo feight tanspot. It is impotant to compae the value of goods to the isk of cago theft, as it could be cost effective fo some companies to utilize had-sided tailes fo high-value shipments despite the inceased cost and likely difficulty in identifying a sevice povide.
