aide automotive are pleased to release a new Fuel Prevention Product For the Commercial Vehicle market, Fuel Theft Prevention Camera

Companies who have fitted or made an enquiry about our range of anti siphon devices have show concern of tank attacks, although our research has no evidence of tank attacks once the diesel thief is confronted with an anti siphon, a Fuel Theft Camera could well be the option to rest concerns.

A waterproof camera designed for the view of the Truck Diesel Fuel Tank, a motion sensor will activate the camera when someone is moving around the tank.

With GPS and real time recording, a detailed report of attempted or actual fuel theft will be video recorded for evidence.

Sale Director Matt Burke Said “We know that fuel theft is ongoing, adding a camera to our product range now covers many areas of prevention of commercial vehicle fuel theft. We say Stop Fuel Theft Now.”

Hounslow has been reported as the worst London borough for Fuel Theft from vehicles.

This information is based on figures obtained from the Metropolitan Police.

The West London borough had a total of 175 reports between 2009 and 2012, but only five prosecutions.

Greenwich, Lewisham, Southwark and Merton also emerge in the top five boroughs for Fuel Theft.

The Met said the majority of thefts were from commercial haulage vehicles which were prominent in Hounslow.

It said the area served both Heathrow Airport and Central London and advised that parking goods vehicles in areas with good lighting and CCTV was the most effective way of reducing opportunities for thieves to syphon diesel.
