When will this Day be celebrated? September 1st of each calendar year.
What is National Respect The Drive Day?
Respect the Drive was built to celebrate our amazing truck drivers here at Centerline and truck drivers across America. They are the lifeline that keeps America moving and are essential to our economy. Our drivers can earn milestones with us for the longer they stay with Centerline and more hours they work – being recognized with cash bonuses. We also recognize drivers each quarter who prioritize safety on the road. At the end of the year, we celebrate 3 Truck Drivers of the Year as well! One of our most exciting elements of the program is that we dedicate the entire month of September (pairing with Truck Driver Appreciation Week) as Respect the Drive month! We celebrate this month with stories of our drivers, contests, rewards and recognition with our internal teams and customers. www.centerlinedrivers.com/respectthedrive
Why is this day being created?
At Centerline, our drivers are like our family and the focus of everything we do. You are the heart of the road and our lifeline to keep America moving. We want to honor the dedication that they put behind the wheel every day by Respecting the Drive™. We also want to create a movement around Respect the Drive and allow others outside of the Centerline community to join us in pledging their commitment to truck drivers by respecting the driver.
