3 Highway and Motor Carrier The HAZMAT Truck Security Pilot was a congressionally mandated pilot project to design and build a centralized truck tracking center capability. TSA developed a set of protocols capable of interfacing with existing truck tracking systems. The desired outcome was to test the feasibility of a centralized truck tracking center and capability that allowed TSA to continually track truck locations and HAZMAT load types in all 50 states and to receive exception based events.
