Basically the idea that every container is scanned/inspected is a complete myth.
In truth they target random containers from known hot spots. That’s it.
Put simply: authorities have no idea what is in containers. The container is loaded onto a truck miles away from a port. The truck drives in to the shipping yards and from the shipping systems point of view it’s a weight and a destination and the cranes put it when it has to go. Same at the other end.
This idea shown in movies where they literally have dodgy fred working at the boat yard hustling to sneak cars into containers and onto ships is just holywood.
