Vehicle Escorts
 At 24/7 Close Protection Ltd we can provide vehicle escorts for VIP’s, high risk loads and any other form of vehicle escort you may require. We can supply a team of highly trained CPO’s (Close Protection Operatives) or a single one person vehicle escort. We can supply a driver and escort vehicle or a team of highly trained drivers and different vehicles, depending on your requirements and needs. We believe that the security of the vehicle, its passengers and all its cargo should be uppermost in the mind of the driver/s. our highly dedicated team of fully trained personal will assist you every step of the way. We will help you plan your journey/journeys in every aspect, so you are not predictable should a surveillance team from a terrorist group or organised gang be watching your movements and picking out a time to attack.
Our trained operatives will discus prior planning to the task ahead with you, keeping you informed of every part of the escort. All our prior planning and preparation will greatly aid in the success of the task ahead and ease of the operation. Most vehicle escorts are relatively straight forward, but we will plan for all types of situations that we could face, so we are prepared for every eventuality and no situation will come as a surprise. All our vehicle section operatives carry out our simple SOP’s (Standard Operation Procedures) regarding the conduct of all vehicle escorts they undertake. Our operatives are also improving their overall security awareness during any task undertaken by them on behalf of our clients.
If more than one vehicle is required as part of the escort section all our escort section will be in constant radio contact, as well as keeping constant visual contact with the vehicle that is to be escorted and with all other persons in that section (where possible). We are aware that driving conditions on any road can be constantly changing, so all our personal will vary their driving skills accordingly to suit the road condition and traffic situations that they may face. Our vehicle escort section will also vary their driving position depending on the road conditions, the risk of hijack and traffic conditions.
All of 24/7 CPO’s are aware that the most venerable part of any journey is the departure and arrival of the vehicle and know this is the most dangerous aspect of any escort, whether it be by foot or vehicle. This is where our operatives training, experience and high level of discipline will come into affect.
In the event of an attack against our escorted vehicle, all the operatives in the escort vehicles training and experience will take affect and all follow to a strict course of action already planned, which will be covered in the SOP’s. However sometimes this will change and not go as planned, but with the high level of experience and training our operatives have undergone they will all work as a team and complete the task of protecting the vehicle and driver whatever situation they come under.
Our operatives will only use reasonable force the Law will allow to the type of situation in protecting . This is listed under Section 3 of the Criminal Law Act 1967 and states that “Any person may use such force as is reasonable in the circumstances in preventing a crime or in effecting or assisting in the lawful arrest of offenders or suspected offenders or of persons unlawfully at large”. this Act of parliament therefore, provides, in its interpretation, the right of all citizens to use force in their defence or in the defence of others in the prevention of a crime (based on the fact that any infliction of force upon another person may amount to an assault against the person and such a crime).
