Schneider National is celebrating hundreds of drivers for reaching new safety milestones while delivering reliable performance for shippers.
Beyond these individuals, the awards also reflect Schneider’s investment in drivers and providing them with training, equipment and tools to be successful.
This year’s recipients help reinforce safe practices across Schneider’s fleet, supporting the company’s responsible operations and reliable service for customers, according to a statement from the company.
“These milestones represent thousands of decisions made the right way,” said Schneider President and CEO Mark Rourke. “We celebrate the accomplishments of these award-earning professionals whose experience, determination and skill help push our safety performance forward.”
This year, Scheneider recognized the outstanding drivers who have helped keep the roads safe and inspire others:
- 85 drivers received the Consecutive Safe Driving Award, celebrating 10 or more consecutive years without a preventable accident or significant lost-time injury.
- Ira Kelley was recognized for achieving 40 years of consecutive safe driving in 2025, following his accomplishment in 2022 of reaching 4 million safe miles without a preventable accident.
- 84 drivers earned the Million Mile Award for transporting freight over 1 million miles accident-free or achieving a new million-mile milestone above their previous achievement.
- Four drivers reached the incredible milestone of 30 years of consecutive safe driving.
- 29 drivers were honored in the prestigious Haul of Fame event on June 11, either being inducted or having their plaques updated with new milestones. The Haul of Fame honors drivers for 3 million safe driving miles or 20 consecutive years of preventable accident-free driving. With this year’s class, the Haul of Fame now includes 448 total inductees. To permanently honor the recipients, plaques displaying their names are installed on the Haul of Fame wall at the company’s headquarters in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
