Sandy Drivers Receive National Company Recognition for Safety<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Charles Lowe and Chrysler Collins both received national recognition for their dedication to safety and service. Charles was recognized in MV Transportation\u2019s quarterly national newsletter for his awareness and safety practices. During a routine stop Charles demonstrated remarkable vigilance by performing a \u201cRock and Roll\u201d maneuver – pausing for three seconds and looking right, left, right before proceeding forward through a green light. This proactive pause can prevent accidents such as drivers running red lights or pedestrians still crossing the street. The YouTube video https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=lJE97LbaExY<\/a> illustrates how Charles\u2019s quick thinking and adherence to safety protocol prevented a severe accident with a semi-truck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chrysler Collins recently received the prestigious Katherine McClary Award for quarter four of 2023, MV\u2019s highest safety and service honor recognizing the nation\u2019s top transit drivers. Out of over 15,000 drivers, only one is selected quarterly for this award based on their safety, positive work attitude, customer service, dress code, attendance, initiative, quality of work and overall job performance. Chrysler\u2019s accomplishment is remarkable, but for those who know her, it is no surprise that she rose to the challenge!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SAM is one of the smaller MV divisions, but we have been recognized 4 times in 4 years for our safe practices and friendly customer service. We take immense pride in our drivers and are thrilled to showcase their dedication to excellence. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
