In its 14th year, the Citizen Driver award celebrates professional drivers who embody the highest qualities of the truck driving profession. Do you know a driver who demonstrates good citizenship, safety, health and wellness, community involvement, and leadership? If so, nominate them today!
Not only will recipients receive a generous cash prize, but they also get to choose a TA, Petro Stopping Center, or TA Express location to be dedicated in their honor. To further honor their career and contributions, a bronze historical marker featuring the driver’s image and story will be installed on the front of the building. A special dedication ceremony will be held with the driver’s family and friends. Additionally, TravelCenters of America will make a $2,500 donation to each winner’s organization of choice.
“The Citizen Driver Program puts a spotlight on some of the most extraordinary drivers today and illustrates the fine examples of professionalism embedded in the truck driving profession,” TA said in a statement. “Over 150 nominations for the Citizen Driver award were received last year, from fleet owners and executives, professional drivers, trucking organization members and trucking industry suppliers.”
Since its start in 2013, the program has honored a total of 41 professional drivers.
Submit your nominations HERE by October 27th for a chance to be recognized as a Citizen Driver. A panel of trucking professionals will carefully evaluate all the nominees to determine the final candidates.
