Participant scores were based on a written exam, a pre-trip inspection, personal interview along with the driving competition. These professional drivers compete in stopping, backing, turning and serpentine maneuvers in the same sort of trucks they drive every day. Driver scores were then combined and top three winners in each category were announced during the Banquet. First place winners may move onto the American Trucking Associations Truck Driving Championship.

Congratulations to all!
