]]> Cargo theft continues its upward trend in Mexico, affecting carriers on key routes. In the second quarter of 2025, 82% of incidents were committed with violence and 65% occurred while the vehicles were in motion, according to the most recent Overhaul report .

Puebla and the State of Mexico accounted for 43.5% of the national incidence, reflecting the vulnerability of operations in these corridors.

In this context, Panacea introduced its fifth wheel sensor , a device designed to monitor the exact moment a box is attached to or detached from the tractor.

If the system detects a maneuver outside of authorized zones, it sends an immediate alert that can be integrated into tracking platforms such as Samsara , a partner of the company, according to Valente Vargas, manager of Telemetry and Security Solutions for Carriers at Panacea.

The device works as a safety add-on that does not require changing the existing GPS , making it easy to adopt.

According to the company, it is currently installed in more than 32,000 units , generating real-time data that can be cross-referenced with geofences—virtual areas defined by geographic coordinates—and internal protocols for faster response times.

The importance of this type of technology lies in the fact that a significant portion of cargo thefts involve trailer separation, a practice that occurs both on highways and in unguarded yards.

With tools that accurately identify these events, transportation companies can strengthen their prevention measures and improve their response times to threats.
