Haulier goes for MiX

07 November 2008

Wrings Transport has fitted its 40-strong fleet with the latest MiX Telematics systems, designed to involve drivers more in saving fuel.

The FM300 fleet management system now features a RIBAS dashboard-mounted device with five LEDs, which flash when a driver exceeds a pre-programmed vehicle parameter. This covers over-revving, idling, harsh braking or acceleration, and speeding.

05 November 2008

First, hijackers in "unmarked" police vehicles targeted trucks.

Now, they're using the same ploy to hijack cars.

According to pre-festive season statistics, there was a 15 percent increase in thefts and hijackings in September this year, compared with September last year.

Most of these incidents involved passenger vehicles, not trucks carrying cargo.

And it's only the start of the festive season.
