HOW TO QUALIFY

The Driver of the Year award is designed to recognize and honor our drivers who have demonstrated superior professionalism, excellence in safety, and have dedicated their time and efforts in all around service to the Montgomery Transportation Group and our customers. The Driver of the Month and Driver of the Quarter is selected from the fleet’s top performers each month. A Driver of the Month committee, consisting of safety and senior management, reviews the list of top performing drivers and puts them to a vote.

Each driver will become a candidate for Driver of the Year that will be chosen at the beginning of the following year once scores are finalized.
