Eight drivers from XPO (NYSE: XPO), a leading provider of
freight transportation in North America, took home top
awards at the 2023 National Truck Driving Championships (NTDC). The
championships were held in Columbus, Ohio from August 16 to
19.
XPO drivers honored at this year’s national
championships include:
- Barry Kraemer (Fond du Lac, Wisconsin), 1st place in
the 3-axle category
- Joe Hicks (Providence, Rhode Island), 2nd place in
the 3-axle category
- Jeffrey Langenhahn (Stevens Point, Wisconsin),
2nd place in the twins category
- Tim Vogt (Norcross, Georgia), 3rd place in the tank

- Ina Daly (Phoenix, Arizona), received the
prestigious Neill Darmstadter Professional Excellence Award, which
is given to the contestant who most exemplifies the best attributes
of a professional truck driver
- Tom Griffin, Ernie Budlowski and Derrick Caro, all
drivers from Connecticut (Hartford and Bridgeport), won
1st place in the State Team Award competition
Forty-one XPO drivers earned spots at this year’s
NTDC, which is known as the “Super Bowl of Safety.” Each driver had
to win his or her state truck driving championships to qualify for
the national competition. All NTDC finalists also must have been
accident-free for at least one year prior to the competition. Most
of XPO’s contestants have logged over one million accident-free
miles, a milestone that takes a typical XPO driver approximately
nine years to reach.
“We are incredibly proud of our national
championship drivers and the hundreds of others who participated in
state competitions across the country,” said XPO CEO Mario Harik.
“I also want to thank the family members and loved ones who
provided great support along the way. Our drivers are world-class,
and their commitment to safety, care for customers and exceptional
skills continue to set XPO apart.”
