Eighteen companies have been awarded division winners in the Truckload Carriers Association's 44th Annual Fleet Safety Awards competition. The top three winning companies in each of six mileage-based divisions had the lowest accident frequency ratios per million miles, annually.
“For yet another year, TCA is honored to present the Fleet Safety Awards to our members who continually prioritize safety in their operations,” said TCA President John Lyboldt. “These awards showcase the best of our industry, and set these carriers apart as truly maintaining the gold standard when it comes to protecting their drivers, their loads, their equipment, and the greater motoring public.”
The 18 division winners are now invited to compete for one of two grand prizes – one for carriers with a total annual mileage less than 25 million miles and the other for carriers with mileage greater than 25 million miles. Grand prize winners will be announced at TCA’s 2020 Annual Convention, March 1-3, at the Gaylord Palms Resort in Kissimmee, Florida. All winners will also receive recognition at TCA’s 2020 Safety & Security Division Meeting June 7-9 in Louisville, Kentucky. The program is sponsored by Great West Casualty.

Division I Winners (less than 5 million miles)
1st Place: Carbon Express, Wharton, New Jersey
2nd Place: Kool Pak, Lake Oswego, Oregon
