 Increase in vehicle theft, hijackings, and cargo theft.
 Increase of 29% in reported truck hijackings over the past year.
 Increase in incidents where signal jamming devices are used during vehicle
and cargo theft.
 Any standard GSM and GPS telematics devices are susceptible to signal
jamming.
 Jamming prevents the telematics device from communicating its position.
Signal jamming used in hijackings

 An enhanced jamming mitigation solution.
 Pro-active action taken when signal jamming is detected:
 Attempt to transmit a warning notification of an impending GSM jamming event, prior to
complete jamming taking effect;
 Use one or more of its outputs to act as a deterrent;
 Utilise satellite communications or Radio Frequency to communicate the jamming event
and assist with the recovery;
 If one satellite positioning service is jammed, it switches to another satellite network.

 On the 14th of April at 02:01 AM, a client’s truck stopped transmitting its position on the R554 in the
Brakpan area.
 The Track and React agent attempted to manually regain communication with the MiX Communicator
installed in the truck and he attempted to contact the driver.
 However, his attempts were in vain therefore it was suspected that the vehicle was hijacked.
 The client was notified and the recovery was set into motion by the MiX Telematics recovery services.
 Together with the SAPS and Metro Police, the air and ground recovery team searched the area where the
last signal was transmitted from.
 The truck and trailer was seen parked in front of a yard in Benoni from the helicopter, and a few minutes
later the truck and trailer with the cargo was safely recovered.
 The police arrested 8 suspects with a 12 antenna GPS/GSM jammer in their possession, as well as
another stolen truck onto which the suspects were cross-loading the stolen cargo.
 Criminal charges were laid against all the suspects.
Another successful recovery (the 11th for the same client)

 A bulk transport operator with 63 vehicles
achieved a reduction of 1,6 litre per 100 km
in fuel consumption, and there was a
significant reduction in incidents of speeding
and excessive idling.
 A diary fleet reduce excessive idling by 50%
and decreased over-speeding hours by 83
hours over the first 4 months. This resulted
in savings of over R43,000 per year.
