49 Drivers are to compete in Truck Driving Championship on Saturday.

Charleston, WV (June 25, 2016) – Professional West Virginia tractor-trailer operators will test their driving skills and knowledge of the trucking industry during the West Virginia Trucking Association’s annual Truck Driving Championship, to be held this Saturday, June 25 at the Charleston Civic Center inside the North/South Halls. 

The best time to experience the tractor-trailer driving competition will be between 10:00 a.m. – 1:30 p.m. 

The Truck Driving Championships (TDC) is designed to promote safety in the trucking industry. Each driver has a chance to demonstrate his or her driving skill and knowledge of the trucking industry through a series of tests. The drivers are given a written examination, pre-trip inspection test and finally the most visible - the field test. 

Drivers will compete for a chance to go to the American Trucking Associations’ National Truck Driving Championship – also known as the Super Bowl of Safety – taking place in Indianapolis, IN, August 10 – 13, 2016.  

Beginning at 6:30 p.m. Saturday evening, WV Trucking Association will host a banquet at the Civic Center to present the winners of the driving competition and annual safety awards, which include the “Driver of the Year” and the “State Police Safety Award” tributes.

Come out and support our local drivers!
