• Abstract:
  Passenger transportation usually receives more attention for safety and security than freight transportation, and since the tragic events that occurred on September 11th, 2001, passenger air transportation has been receiving a great deal of attention for the risks of further terrorist attacks. However, safety and security-related risks involving freight transportation should not be ignored, and it also is receiving considerable attention of both public and private sectors. This paper examines these risks with a special focus on security issues involving terrorism. There are several different types of safety and security-related occurrences involving freight movements and these are discussed briefly in the following sections.
