Each April, the California Professional Truck Driving Championships (TDC25) recognize and promote safe driving and professionalism in the transportation industry. This competitive event gives drivers a chance to test their job skills under standardized conditions using vehicles that are the tools of their trade. Truck driving championships afford a safe, accurate check of the driver's ability to handle his/her unit in close quarters.

Two regional competitions are held within the state - north and south. The winners from each class of competition and region then come together to compete in the State Finals Competition.

The first place state finals winners then go on to compete with other states’ winners at the National Truck Driving Championships which are held by ATA in various cities throughout the nation.

The CTA's Truck Driving Championship Committee organizes this yearly event. A dedicated group of volunteers participate on the Committee and, along with more volunteers, facilitate and judge this annual competition.

If you are interested in the Truck Driving Championships committee or want more information, please contact us at membership@caltrux.org or at (916) 373-3500.
