NPTC to Host 2026 National Safety Conference in Florida

The National Private Truck Council will host its 2026 National Safety Conference Sept. 9-11 in ChampionsGate, Florida, featuring safety education, regulatory updates and the National Driver All-Star Awards.

The National Private Truck Council (NPTC) will bring fleet professionals from across the country together next month for its 2026 National Safety Conference, an annual event focused on improving safety, security and operational performance within private trucking fleets.

The conference is scheduled for Sept. 9-11 at the Omni Orlando Resort at ChampionsGate in ChampionsGate, Florida.

According to NPTC, the three-day program will feature educational sessions, interactive workshops, panel discussions and networking opportunities designed to help fleet managers address today’s most pressing safety and regulatory challenges.

Conference Will Focus on Fleet Safety Strategies

NPTC said this year’s agenda has been developed around current issues affecting private fleet operations, with presentations aimed at providing practical solutions that attendees can implement within their own organizations.

The conference will include expert-led discussions covering safety management, fleet security and operational best practices, along with opportunities for attendees to exchange ideas with industry peers and subject matter experts.

National Driver All-Star Awards to Highlight the Event

One of the conference’s featured events will be the presentation of the National Driver All-Star Awards, NPTC’s annual recognition program honoring outstanding private fleet drivers from across the United States.

Co-sponsored by International Motors and Centerline Drivers, the awards recognize drivers who demonstrate excellence in safety, customer service, regulatory compliance, company standards and community involvement.

The awards will be presented during a special luncheon held as part of the conference.

Regulatory and Industry Updates Planned

Attendees will also receive an update on federal transportation policy from NPTC General Counsel Rick Schweitzer, who is scheduled to present the association’s annual Washington Report covering recent legislative and regulatory developments affecting private fleets.

In addition, NPTC Executive Vice President Tom Moore, CTP, will review findings from the organization’s newly released Annual Benchmarking Survey Report, which examines trends and performance metrics across the private fleet industry.

All conference activities will take place at the Omni Orlando Resort at ChampionsGate. Additional information about registration, conference programming, and hotel accommodations is available through the National Private Truck Council.
