The ABF Road Team comprises 12 drivers who exhibit the highest standards of professionalism and practice it daily on North American highways and city streets. Road Team membership requires an exemplary driving record and is one of the highest honors an ABF driver can achieve.

 

“Our Road Team members have been chosen from what we believe is the best group of drivers in the transportation industry," says ABF President and Chief Executive Officer Wes Kemp. "Their dedication to safe driving, commitment to quality and error-free service and devotion to upholding the highest standards of professionalism make these drivers role models for the entire industry."

 

During their 24-month term, ABF Road Team members serve as ambassadors for ABF and the trucking industry at large. Each member is available to address the vital role freight transportation plays in the global economy. When called upon, they speak on safety, the image of the truck driver and the industry, sharing the road with trucks, or other subjects of community or industry interest.
