“Driving a truck in stop-and-go traffic and around all types of heavy equipment is no simple task. Drivers who perform their job each and every day while keeping an emphasis on safety deserve the highest recognition,” said Commodor Hall, transportation safety director for ISRI. “For more than thirty years, Mark Withrow has been transporting goods in a safe and reliable manner, while ensuring the drivers under him do the same. He truly exemplifies the truck drivers who keep America’s roads safe.”
The Safe Driver of the Year Award is based on the following mandatory criteria:
Other criteria taken into account are the driver’s contribution to highway safety (driver trainer), letters of appreciation, deeds of heroism on or off the job, and civic and fraternal organizations.
“Mark has always greatly credited his father for teaching him the core values of hard work and to respect the company he works for,” said Steve Helton, Transportation Director at Cohen Recycling. “To this day, that value is very evident in his work performance and dedication. We at Cohen are honored to have such a safe and efficient driver who upholds our company’s values of integrity and quality at all times.”
When he is not at work, Mark is spending time with his wife of 31 years, Cherye, and their daughter Jennifer, who is a student at Miami University in Ohio. Mark’s Hobbies includes collecting antique tractors with his father, reading and gardening.
The award was presented to Mr. Withrow at ISRI’s 2016 Convention in Las Vegas. In addition to travel to and lodging at the Convention, Mark received a trophy, personalized certificate, ReMA Safe Driver leather jacket, congratulatory letter, and a $500 personal check.
The second-place winner was Dan Storms of LP Padnos in Holland, MI, and the third-place went to Sean Elliott of Schnitzer Northeast, in Concord, NH.
