New Volvo Video Salutes Professional Truck Drivers

Volvo Trucks North America is kicking off National Truck Driver Appreciation Week, Sept. 9 to 15, with a new film titled “The Movers,” a tribute to the men and women who serve as professional truck drivers. 

The scale is big: According to the American Trucking Associations, there are 3.5 million professional truck drivers in the U.S. who drive a collective 4.5 billion miles annually to deliver consumer goods and life’s essentials, like food, fuel, clothing and medicine.

“Professional truck drivers play a crucial role in almost every aspect of our daily lives, safely transporting the food, fuel, and consumer goods that sustain us and make life comfortable,” said Peter Voorhoeve, president of Volvo Trucks North America. “I would like to see a greater appreciation of the truck driver profession because they have a vast effect on North America’s economic strength. As a truck OEM we are committed to actively contributing to help improve the perception throughout society.”
