We’re about two weeks away from the Alabama Truck Driving Championships — ATA’s annual skills competition for member fleets and their drivers. With more than 100 drivers expected to compete in nine vehicle classes, this is our Safety & Maintenance Management Council’s largest, most exciting event, by far. Contestants compete in fleet safety knowledge, driving skills and vehicle inspections.

For more information or to register drivers, call 334-834-3983. Hurry! Deadline to enter is Friday, May 18, 2018.

Meanwhile, several companies have stepped up to support this event – special thanks to Birmingham Freightliner for its $2,400 donation, which pays for contestant hats and shirts.
