What Key Factors and Trends are Driving the Growth of the Vehicle Scanner Market?
The expansion of the vehicle scanner market in the future is anticipated to be propelled by growing security apprehensions. In this context, security threat implies a temporary policy implemented by police or security personnel to protect individuals or places from further harm when threatened. Vehicle scanners are utilized to detect contraband, illicit drugs, and weapons among other hazardous items during the inspection of containers and vehicles. Due to heightened worries about illegal drug smuggling and other security lapses, numerous places including seaports will keep employing vehicle scanners for prevention. For example, as per the U.S. Customs and Border Protection database, a U.S. government agency, U.S. apprehensions of criminal noncitizens shot up from 2,438 in 2020 to 12,028 in 2022. Within this, instances of illegal drug possession and smuggling went up from 386 in 2020 to 2,239 in 2022. Illegal transportation, possession of weapons, and smuggling grew from 49 in 2020 to 309 in 2022, while illegal entry and reentry cases went up from 1,261 in 2020 to 6797 in 2022. As such, the increasing security worries are fueling the expansion of the vehicle scanner market.
