Above and beyond

Feb. 18, 2015

Want to recognize an outstanding commercial driver who stands out for being known to be “of personal character beyond reproach”? Consider nominating him or her for the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance’s (CVSA) new  International Driver Excellence Award (IDEA).

CVSA intends for the IDEA award to be conferred upon an “exceptional professional” driver who “consistently goes above and beyond the performance of his or her duties… through the achievement of safe operation and compliance carried out with evident distinction for an extended period of time, beyond the normal service of duty.”

The first recipient of the award will be honored at CVSA’s September conference. The deserving winner will receive a trophy, a monetary award, and an IDEA medallion to affix to his or her truck or bus.
