our artics do similar trips with much higher value loads over much longer distances, and their security is even better!
3 of them left just before me with the same contents, and they have to travel in convoy, no stopping for any reason, and with a lead security car, a tail car, then a couple of unknown vehicles that even the lorry drivers arent made aware of. they dnt even have to stop for the police, they are made aware of the shipment and if its not a stop for an emergency, the police just have to join the convoy
but seeing as our transport office is wallpapered with police warnings of past hi-jackings, its all for good reason. otherwise u lot probs wouldnt ever get hold of pc's and tv's and such, they would all be robbed in transit!
