Five Canadian carriers among TCA Fleet Safety Award winners
Five Canadian carriers are among the 18 division winners in the 48th annual Truckload Carriers Association (TCA) Fleet Safety Awards competition.
Elgin Motor Freight, Erb Transport, Challenger Motor Freight, Trans-West Logistics, and Bison Transport represented Canada among the division winners.
The awards recognize truckload carriers that exhibit an exceptional dedication to safety by achieving the lowest accident frequency ratios per million miles within six mileage-based divisions.
“The submissions for this year’s Fleet Safety Awards were quite impressive, and we are proud of our members who invest in safety technology and training to enhance safety on our nation’s roads” said Jim Ward, TCA president. “I look forward to sharing the success of these 18 carriers in March at TCA’s Annual Convention.”
The 18 division winners are now invited to compete for one of two grand prizes – one for carriers with a total annual mileage of less than 25 million miles, and the other for carriers with mileage greater than 25 million miles.
Grand prize winners will be announced at Truckload 2024 in Nashville, Tenn., set for March 23-26. All winners will also receive recognition at TCA’s 2024 Safety & Security Meeting on June 2-5 in Indianapolis, Ind.
