YRC Freight Sends 19 Drivers to the 2017 National Truck Driving Championships
To qualify for the NTDC, drivers must first take top honors by class in their respective state competitions, maintain continuous employment with a motor carrier fleet for a period of at least one year, and remain accident-free, regardless of fault, for one year prior to NTDC.
The competition consists of a driver skills challenge, pre-trip inspection, and a written exam on subjects such as laws, regulations and vehicle maintenance. Winners are determined based on overall scores at the close of competition. First, second, and third place finishers will be named for each class, plus a Grand Champion--the competitor with the highest overall score across all classes--will be named.
"The National Truck Driving Championships is an incredibly prestigious event," said
