AMTA Steering Change - Episode 48: More than a Driver

In this episode, we are revisiting the incredible conversation held during our September virtual Regional Meeting, “More Than a Driver: Putting Professionalism Back Into The Industry”. AMTA's Kelsey Hipkin brings back Kalina LeGoff (Manager, Safety and Compliance, Western Canada, Tri-Line Carriers), and Doug Walton (Senior Advisor, Member Solutions, AMTA), from the Regional for this episode, with the addition of Cliff Litke (Senior Advisor, Member Services, AMTA), to dive deeper into driver supports and workplace culture, the importance of training and mentorship, longevity of the job, and more. As mentioned in this episode, the quality of the recording from our latest Regional Meeting on September 10 is not to our satisfaction.

Each day, they navigate challenging conditions, weather, and traffic to deliver goods safely, while also taking extraordinary measures to ensure the safety of everyone around them. AMTA’s "Angels of the Highway" program is designed to celebrate and acknowledge these selfless efforts. This initiative not only recognizes the commitment truck drivers make to road safety but also empowers them with the tools and resources to continue their vital work while staying healthy, safe, and supported on the road.
