The collected figures show that almost a quarter of fleets have no security at all to prevent theft of vehicles from the fleet. For smaller fleets specifically, the figures are even more dramatic, because almost half of these fleets appear to have no vehicle security! Yet there are sufficient affordable applications available. High time for a <strong>wake-up call<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3>Number of car thefts in Europe continues to rise<\/h3>\n<p>That <strong>awareness<\/strong> is in any case on the agenda is evident from the number of vehicle thefts in Europe, which is increasing year after year and has currently reached the highest level ever. Furthermore, the latest <a href=\"https:\/\/www.europol.europa.eu\/publications-events\/main-reports\/socta-report\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">report from SOCTA<\/a>, a four-yearly publication by Europol, shows that only 1 in 4 owners is able to recover their stolen vehicle afterwards. Yes, you read that right: no less than 75% never see their stolen vehicle again! The rapid <strong>technological evolution<\/strong> also clearly plays a role in this increase in the number of thefts. Think for example of keyless access, where malicious persons with the right technological gadgets can make off with a vehicle very quickly. It is very important that fleet managers are aware of these possibilities and take the <strong>necessary measures<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3>Advice for securing your fleet<\/h3>\n<p>With figures like these at hand, the importance of good <a href=\"https:\/\/www.traxgo.be\/en\/vehicle-security-with-incert-certified-tt-systems\/\">vehicle security<\/a> cannot be overstated.
