ANN ARBOR, Mich. — It was a night of winning for Con-way Freight at the California Trucking Association’s Fleet Safety Awards.

The company took the evening’s top honor the Fleet Safety Award/Board of Directors Grand Trophy in addition to first place in LTL/General Commodities Line Haul, second place in LTL/General Commodities Local/Short Haul and a Certificate of Recognition from the California State Assembly. Fleet safety is an increasingly important issue in California, home to three of the nation’s top 10 most congested regions: the Los Angeles, San Francisco and San Diego areas. Con-way Freight is a subsidiary of Con-way Inc. (NYSE: CNW).

An independent panel of judges selects winners based on categories including safe driving miles, training, driver supervision and preventive maintenance.

The Fleet Safety Awards program started in 1983 for California Trucking Association members. Con-way previously won the Fleet Safety Award/Board of Directors Grand Trophy in 1994.
