This annual award is TCA’s way of recognizing and celebrating the incredible acts of bravery and kindness shown by professional truck drivers.

Meet the 2025 TCA Highway Angels of the Year Finalists
TCA’s Highway Angels website highlights the inspiring stories behind this year’s impressive finalists:
- Andrew Inlow (Booneville, Miss., Maverick Transportation): Known for his generosity, Andrew spent $1,000 of his own money to feed hundreds of people in Asheville, N.C., who were affected by Hurricane Helene. He even went door-to-door at a Days Inn, offering food to guests in need.
- Jason Corino (Deltona, Fla., Melton Truck Lines): Jason made headlines for stopping his truck during a roadside traffic stop in Cortez, Colo., to shield motorists from an active shooter, putting his own life at risk to protect others.
- Michael Dorsey (Porter, Texas, Mercer Transportation Co.): Michael’s quick-thinking actions saved flood victims in Tennessee during the aftermath of Hurricane Helene. He used his trailer to shield and protect those stranded by historic rainfall.
- Joseph Carroll (London, Ontario, Canada, Elgin Motor Freight): Joseph demonstrated remarkable strength and compassion by rescuing a trucker trapped after a major crash. He lifted a heavy roof off the driver, who was buried under the truck’s contents. Since the incident, Joseph has stayed in touch with the driver he saved.
- Daljit Sohi (Triple Eight Transport Inc.): Daljit didn’t just stop at a good deed — when he noticed a woman had dropped her purse at a rest stop, he drove three hours to return it. The purse contained $1,100 in cash, a gold chain, credit cards, and identification. Despite being offered $500 as a reward, Daljit refused any payment.
