The annual Salute to Women Behind the Wheel program honors and recognizes female commercial drivers for their efforts and successes as women in a male-populated industry.
Female drivers and business professionals are doing amazing things to be part of the economic engine that moves freight over the road. Part of the һƷ̽»¨'s mission is to promote their accomplishments.
Each year, the һƷ̽»¨ holds events at the (MATS) in Louisville, Kentucky to recognize women drivers in the United States; and in partnership with the Owner-Operator's Business Association of Canada (OBAC) at Truck World in Toronto to recognize women drivers in Canada.
