NPTC Announces Private Fleet Driver All-Stars

The National Private Truck Council has selected 12 private fleet truck drivers as its National Driver All-Stars

. The drivers were honored at a ceremony in conjunction with the group's National Safety Conference earlier this month.

NPTC chooses drivers based on high performance in customer service, safety, adherence to company standards, regulatory compliance, and community service.

"They are ambassadors, not only for their company, but for the entire private fleet community."
