BEST NEW Jack Fielding
Jack Fielding: 2013’s Company Driver of the Year

This year TruckersNews.com has joined the Truckload Carriers Association (TCA) in choosing the Company Driver of the Year. After three finalists are determined, the winner is announced at TCA’s annual meeting in March.

TruckersNews.com’s sister brand Overdrive likewise co-sponsors the Owner-Operator of the Year with TCA.

Nominations for both awards are being accepted through Oct. 31. Winners will be announced during TCA’s meeting March 8-11 near Orlando, Fla.

The contests highlight those who “drive safely, give to their communities, protect the environment, and enhance the image of trucking,” says TCA.
