We were proud to partner with Vision Zero at the Driving Skills for Success & Alive at 25 event to help educate young drivers about safely sharing the road with large trucks.

The conversations, questions, and hands-on experiences make a lasting impact, and we're grateful to everyone who stopped by the No Zone display. Helping the next generation of drivers understand truck blind spots and safe driving practices is an important step toward safer roads for everyone.

Thank you to Vision Zero, the volunteers, and all of the young drivers who participated!
