FedEx sends largest team yet to national truck driving championships

This season, FedEx team members earned several distinctions: 24 drivers secured their state’s Grand Championship titles while eight first-time competitors received their state’s Rookie of the Year recognition.

The combined safe-driving record among this group is over 298 million miles without incident. Notably, 119 drivers have each driven more than one million accident-free miles.

The American Trucking Associations organizes the NTDC every year. The event began in 1937 as the National Truck Roadeo and requires participants to qualify through performance at state-level competitions.
