“Volvo is extremely proud to sponsor such an important safety and image building program for the trucking industry,” said Scott Kress, Volvo Trucks senior vp– sales & marketing. “America’s Road Team and its captains put a human face on trucking. They educate audiences about the industry, its importance to society and our dedication to safety on the nation’s highways. Through these Road Team Captains, the general public gets to know the men and women behind the wheel of millions of trucks.”
