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.
