Rivalries aside, safety comes first. Whether you’re watching a player get “trucked” on the field or cheering on the teams, remember that real trucks play a major role behind the scenes—transporting everything from team gear and merchandise to broadcast and entertainment equipment.

As you enjoy the Super Bowl, please plan ahead and make smart decisions behind the wheel. And to the professional drivers who make events like this possible by safely delivering what’s needed every mile of the way—thank you for keeping things moving.

Please join us in celebrating some of our employee milestones this month! Thank you all for your dedication to service and commitment to excellence. We are proud to have you on the team!

Starting tomorrow, February 6^th, the State of Florida will administer all driver license knowledge and skills examinations exclusively in English. From the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV)’s  press release last week:

~  Florida takes a leading role in highway safety by requiring all driver license exams be taken in English and without an interpreter ~ 

This change applies to all driver license classifications, including exams administered orally. Previously, knowledge exams for most non-commercial driver license classifications were offered in multiple languages, while Commercial Learner’s Permit (CLP) and Commercial Driver License (CDL) knowledge exams were only available in English and Spanish. Under the updated policy, all driver license knowledge and skills testing will be conducted in English.

To implement this change, FLHSMV has updated its driver license testing system statewide. Language translation services will no longer be permitted for knowledge or skills examinations, and any printed exams in languages other than English will be removed for use.

FLHSMV remains committed to ensuring safe roadways for all Floridians and visitors by promoting clear communication, understanding of traffic laws, and responsible driving behavior.

Last month our team participated in the Nacogdoches Beefsteak Dinner – a celebration of camaraderie and history, all in support of a great cause. Hosted by the Nacogdoches County Historical Foundation, proceeds from this boisterous event go directly toward the continued care and preservation of Zion Hill Baptist Church, a treasured piece of the town’s heritage.

Save the Date – February 6th is #WearRedDay for American Heart Month. For professional drivers, heart health isn’t just personal—it’s essential to maintaining medical qualifications and keeping our roads safe. Wear red with us as we raise awareness for heart health across our industry.

Earlier this month we were honored to attend the Lufkin/Angelina County Chamber of Commerce First Friday Luncheon, where Lufkin Mayor Mark Hicks delivered the State of the City presentation. Lufkin, Texas is our hometown – and we are invested in seeing our community grow and thrive. While our area of business expertise is in Federal Regulations, we love the the insight we gain into the inner-workings of our local government at this annual event; and proudly sponsor annually.
