Congratulations Brian Kurtz Trucking and Bison Transport on the National Fleet Safety Awards

Two Canadian fleets have been named the safest truckload carriers in North America by the Truckload Carriers Association at the 35th National Fleet Safety Awards in San Diego. Shaw Tracking would like to recognize and congratulate two of its long standing customers for this significant milestone. Brian Kurtz Trucking of Breslau, Ontario won the award for truckload companies in the small carrier division, and Bison Transport of Winnipeg, Manitoba won in the category for truckload companies in the large carrier division. The two fleets were selected among 18 division winners announced in January.

TCA presented the awards to Brian Kurtz, president of Brian Kurtz Trucking Ltd., and Rob Penner, vice president of operations for Bison Transport, at the association’s Annual Awards Banquet held March 15, 2011, at the San Diego Convention Centre in San Diego, California. Both companies will be recognized a second time during TCA’s upcoming Safety & Security Division Annual Meeting, to be held May 15-17, 2011, in Murfreesboro, Tennessee.

In order to be granted the prestigious grand prize, both companies had to demonstrate that they strive to meet stringent standards in their overall safety programs, on and off the highway, and were judged to be the best in their commitment to improving safety on our nation's highways.

Again, congratulations; Shaw Tracking is extremely proud to be associated with these two leaders in the industry.

Mike Ham, Vice President, Business Services
