Satellite Security Systems (S3), a global provider of asset security and
logistics control, in cooperation with the California Highway Patrol (CHP)
and InterState Oil Company, dramatically demonstrated the first wireless
remote shutdown of a fully loaded moving petrochemical tanker truck.

~From S3's headquarters in San Diego -- 530 miles from the demonstration site
- -- satellite communications were used to disable the truck in seconds,
proving S3's GlobalGuard and FleetGuard a viable solution to the challenge
of controlling rogue hazardous waste vehicles that could pose a threat to
homeland security.

The event, conducted on CHP Academy grounds in Sacramento and administered
by the CHP, addresses ongoing concerns about the affordability of effective
security technology, stealthiness of such a security device, and how GPS
monitoring can be incorporated safely into law enforcement protocol.
