Newsroom Cargo Transporters® Receives 2006 Fleet Safety Award... South Sioux City, Nebraska - Cargo Transporters, headquartered in Claremont NC, was presented a Platinum Safety award for the 8th consecutive year by Great West Casualty Company as part of the 2006 National Fleet Safety Awards Program. The Platinum award is the highest level awarded for safety performance. Cargo Transporters is a truckload carrier operating over 450 trucks in the continental United States. "We are proud of our professional drivers that worked so hard to achieve this award for the eighth year in a row," says John Pope CEO. "Our trucks traveled over 60 million miles last year. These drivers worked very hard to operate in the safest and most efficient manner. Our team of professional drivers, matched with our investment in advanced safety technologies, have helped us achieve this award year after year and continue to make our trucks and drivers the safest on the road." The Fleet Safety Award Program drew over 525 entries from across the country. Carriers were recognized for achieving a low preventable accident frequency per million miles of operation.
