America’s Road Team, sponsored by Volvo, is a group of professional truck drivers with superior safety records that represent the trucking industry, as a means to bolster the industry’s image.
The 32 finalists for captains of the next Road Team now move on to the final round of the selection process, ATA says, which will be held in January in Arlington, Va.
A panel of industry officials and trucking press will judge the contestants on their knowledge of the industry, dedication to safety, ability to communicate the industry’s messages and overall safe drive record, ATA says.
The new captains will be named Jan. 14.
The finalists include:
Paul D. Brandon, Fed Ex Freight, Oxford, Conn.
