Photo Contest

The seventh annual “I HEART Trucking” photo contest was centered around the theme I AM ESSENTIAL, a nod to the critical importance transportation and logistics played during the COVID-19 pandemic. Supply chain workers and professional drivers worked tirelessly to ensure timely and safe deliveries of essential goods and supplies and proved that our industry is the backbone of America. We are ESSENTIAL. And now we are playing a key part in the country’s recovery.

Over 100 participants submitted creative photos at the end of June. Nearly 4,700 votes were cast to determine the People's Choice Winners and a panel of judges determined their favorites for the Judges' Choice Winners.

The winners will be recognized at a special "I HEART Trucking" reception at the WIT Accelerate! Conference & Expo Nov. 7-9 in Dallas, Texas and will be featured in our official magazine, Redefining the Road.

People's Choice Winner:

"For all women that keep the world moving" submitted by Jennifer Davila of Daimler

We here at Daimler Trucks Saltillo in Coahuila Mexico are aligned with the WIT mission to encourage and promote the employment of women in the trucking industry. Exposure and education are key initiatives for us as we continue to perform outreach within our community about opportunities that are available to women in our industry here in Mexico. Even deeper for us, it sends the message that ALL women are essential, regardless of their role."

Judges' Choice Award:

"The Highway Transport HR & Recruiting team. Proudly serving all professional drivers," submitted by Michelle Rayfield of Highway Transport.

In a male dominated industry, each of these women are making paths for the next generation and women like them. We are showing them that we are essential and valuable. 2020 was a year of many challenges and our drivers are the ones that keep the supply chain moving and they never stopped although the rest of the world seemed to slow down."
