The popular AMTA Truck Driving Championships will held on the Western Grounds in Red Deer on June 24, 2017, with top drivers from across the province competing for prizes and honorary titles. This annual event, hosted by Alberta Motor Transport Association, is regarded by many as the Olympics of trucking.
The competition challenges each driver to demonstrate his or her driving and inspection skills, knowledge and professionalism through a series of rigorous tests. The drivers under go a written examination, personal interview, pre-trip inspection test and finally, the most visible – the skills test.
*There will not be a national event held this year. Stay tuned for more information.
