Why Nominate a Driver?

Showcase Your Company’s Commitment to Excellence

Nominating a driver doesn’t just highlight their individual success – it puts a spotlight on your company’s dedication to safety, reliability, and excellence in the industry. This is your chance to show the world that you value your people, and that you’re committed to recognizing excellence behind the wheel.

Celebrate with Awesome Prizes

Let’s face it: great drivers deserve more than a “thanks” over the radio. With the Eclipse DOT Driver of the Year Award, your driver won’t just gain a title—they’ll get exclusive prizes, social media shoutouts, and big-time recognition for their hard work. The road to December 2024 is paved with appreciation!

Boost Team Spirit

Recognizing top performers boosts team morale and inspires everyone to bring their A-game. When you show your crew that hard work is celebrated and rewarded, you’re not just nominating a driver—you’re rallying your entire team around a culture of excellence. Watch as your crew cheers on your star driver!

Ultimate Bragging Rights

“Driver of the Year” is a title worth talking about! This award stands as a symbol of safety, dedication, and pure grit—a badge of honor that’ll make your whole company proud. Not only will your driver have bragging rights, but your company will, too!

Honor Your Driver – And Spend Nothing to Do It!

Recognizing your top driver doesn’t get easier—or more affordable—than this! The Eclipse DOT Driver of the Year Award is completely free to enter, and it’s packed with benefits for both the driver and your company. For zero dollars, you can give your best driver the spotlight, exclusive prizes, and a place in the industry’s elite. When it comes to honoring your driver’s hard work, dedication, and professionalism, this is a chance you can’t afford to miss. After all, how often do you get the chance to recognize excellence without spending a cent?
