Mack to Provide Truck for Industry-Safety Campaign
Mack Trucks said it will sponsor American Trucking Associations’ Share the Road safety campaign for the 13th year and provide a 2014 Mack Pinnacle.
The sleeper model will be used as professional drivers travel the country conducting demonstrations to educate the public how to share the road with large trucks.
We are thrilled to have Mack Trucks as a sponsor of our Share the Road program since 2001,” ATA President Bill Graves said in a statement.
“Share the Road is recognized nationwide as a model education program. With the generous donation of this new Mack Pinnacle model, we will be able to reach millions of people with our message of highway safety,” he said.
The drivers, often with million-mile, accident-free records, cover topics such as potential blind spots and truck stopping distances.
“Our customers depend on Mack Trucks to get the job done safely,” Stephen Roy, president of Mack Trucks North American sales and marketing, said in a statement.
“That safety focus must also include the millions of motorists who drive alongside our trucks every day. Through the Share the Road program, we can do our part to help increase highway safety by educating as many motorists as possible about safe driving behaviors,” he said.
