WINNIPEG, Man. — The Manitoba Trucking Association and Volvo Trucks Canada have named Bison Transport’s Mark Tricco as this year’s Manitoba Driver of the Year. Tricco was selected from a group of 12 Industry Excellence Award winners, an award which honours drivers for their commitment to the industry, safety, outstanding acts and customer service.

Officials say Tricco was selected for his dedication to the industry, his training and his focus on safety – with a driving record of two million miles that boasts no preventable or non-preventable accidents.

“Safety remains a top priority for Mark and he always conducts himself as a true professional,” award organizers said in a release. “His employer has received numerous commendations from customers and other motorists on his behalf.”

“He is the best of the best in our business,” Bison officials said. “He is the ultimate professional and we are privileged to have him representing not only our company, but the industry as a whole.”

As the Provincial Driver of the Year, Tricco is now eligible for the Canadian Trucking Alliance/Volvo Trucks Canada National Driver of the Year Award.
