Fleets as small as five trucks are eligible to enter the Volvo Trucks Safety Award contest, which awards two $25,000 prizes to fleets with the best safety records. The entry deadline is May 30, 2010. Winners will be announced this fall.
All U.S. and Canadian fleets are eligible. Fleets must have at least one Volvo tractor in operation to be eligible for the award. Entrants will be ranked by accident frequency rates. Participating fleets will also be judged on their accident prevention activities.
The two grand prizes will be awarded to the fleets with the best records in two divisions based on annual vehicle miles traveled: less than 20 million miles and more than 20 million miles.
