The PMTA Fleet Safety Awards, partnered with Great West Casualty Company, honors motor carriers for their safe vehicle operations based on objective data from the prior year. Contestants must submit a detailed application that includes all mileage and Department of Transportation (DOT) reported accidents from fleet vehicles in Pennsylvania. Winners are announced annually during the PMTA Membership Conference held every April.

Within the over nine million miles division, PGT Trucking claimed the President’s Trophy – the most substantial accolade given to fleets with more than four million miles.

“These recognitions are a testament to PGT’s comprehensive safety program, solidifying our position as a 2023 Top 20 Best Fleets to Drive For company,” said Joseph Newton, PGT Trucking Director, Safety. “We are proud of the dedication, hard work and continued safe driving focus by our fleet of professional drivers as we strive to be the safest flatbed carrier.”

Southern Pines Trucking, which focuses on cryogenic tanker and heavy-haul operations and is a PGT Trucking affiliate, also landed third place in the four to nine million miles category.

“We are honored to receive the Fleet Safety Award and to be recognized by the Pennsylvania Motor Truck Association and Great West Casualty Company for our fleet’s safe operation and commitment to safety,” said Darren Coast, Southern Pines Trucking President, Cryogenics Division. “I truly appreciate the ongoing efforts of our entire team and professional drivers who make this happen.”
