California Trucking Association is the leading association for the trucking industry and each year recognizes the state’s ground-breaking safety programs and talented professionals. The Fleet Safety Awards honor companies developing and implementing superior safety and loss prevention programs through management commitment, employee involvement and program innovation.

An independent panel of judges, comprised of government agencies and safety professionals, reviews the self audit results that are provided by the participating companies.  The panel looks at how the company organizes its safety programs, as well as training, driver supervision, preventive maintenance, and the overall record of accident reduction.  A field audit is then performed by a safety professional to insure the accuracy of all winning entries.
