Dan England elected Chairman of American Trucking Association
The Board of Directors of American Trucking Association elected Dan England, chairman of C.R. England Inc. as the trucking federation’s chairman. "I’m honored to have been chosen by my peers in this great industry to represent America’s motor carriers, drivers, independent contractors and employees," England said. "The last few years have been difficult for our industry and our nation, but I’m confident that regardless of our challenges, trucking and ATA will continue to lead the country toward economic recovery.
England said that despite the industry’s diversity, the challenges facing trucking were so great that fleets needed to stay united to overcome them.
"We’re faced with a possible change to the hours-of-service rule, a long overdue highway bill and a mounting stack of regulations on top of a sluggish economic recovery," England said. "In order to meet these challenges, we need to speak with one voice, remembering that there is more that unites our industry than divides it."
England takes over for Barbara Windsor, president and CEO of Hahn Transportation Inc., New Market, Md.
