The synthesis addresses key security threats to the commercial trucking and bus industries; risk management techniques available to assess potential threats; employee/driver hiring procedures; current security procedures at commercial truck and bus training schools; security procedures and technologies employed by carriers; issues associated with implementation and/or use of specific security measures; ongoing security research activities; and, to a limited extent, international experience with security measures for commercial truck and bus carriers. The synthesis is based on information collected through a literature search and surveys of commercial truck and bus carriers and other relevant organizations.<p />",
