The Truckload Carriers Association, along with presenting sponsor Great West Casualty Company and supporting sponsor Assured Partners, recently announced the 18 division winners in the 48th Annual TCA Fleet Safety Awards competition.
These yearly 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 TCA President Jim Ward. “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, Tennessee – TCA’s 2024 Annual Convention – March 23-26 at the Gaylord Opryland. All winners will also receive recognition at TCA’s 2024 Safety & Security Meeting on June 2-5 in Indianapolis, IN.
