The American Trucking Associations (ATA) has announced the new America road team captains for 2022/23 who will act as trucking industry ambassadors.
The team is made up of 22 professional truck drivers from 13 companies and 17 states who have more than 564 years of experience and 45,774,455 miles of incident-free driving.
The team captains will travel the country to spread the message of safe driving, while teaching about the trucking industry and its opportunities.
“I’m proud that they will be representing the industry and ATA as our newest and best ambassadors – educating the country about trucking’s essential role in keeping America moving safely and efficiently,” said ATA President and CEO Chris Spear.
America’s Road Team, a group of professional truck drivers with superior safety records, was created in 1986 to represent the trucking industry. Captains, with support from their companies, dedicate a few days each month to attend industry events, speak at schools, or meet policymakers on behalf of the trucking industry.
