Motor Carriers Need Preparation to Ward off Big Rig Terror Attack

Fleet Defender CEO Guests on Washington DC Talk Show CODE RED!

New York, NY (PRWEB) August 27, 2005 -- Terry M. Evans, Chairman and CEO of Fleet Defender Consulting Services, LLC, told radio listeners this morning that a coordinated terrorist attack using large trucks and/or buses might wreak havoc on the nation's economy if carriers are not prepared to prevent it.

As guest of Alfred McComber, on FOX News affiliate WMET's nationally distributed early morning talk show CODE RED!, Mr. Evans warned that we need to do more to get drug-addicted drivers out of trucks, lock down the CDL licensing process, and help fleet owners to implement more physical and operational security in their fleets.

Right now, he said, fleet owners are economically discouraged from implementing strong security measures even if they want to do so.

Fleet Defender (www.fleetdefender.com) provides the transportation industry with services and support aimed at reducing their exposure to the threat of terrorism.
