Help Launch the Louisiana Road Team – Join the Core Committee

Louisiana Truckers,

 

We have an exciting opportunity to promote and elevate the image of trucking in Louisiana — and we need your help to make it happen.

 

Louisiana is launching a Road Team for the state of Louisiana. A State Road Team is a group of professional truck drivers selected to represent our industry as public ambassadors. These drivers share their expertise with schools, civic groups, and the media — putting a positive face on trucking, educating the public about highway safety, and inspiring the next generation of drivers.

 

Our goal is to officially launch a Louisiana Road Team in 2026, and we are looking for two committed individuals to serve on the Core Committee that will help guide this effort.

 

As a Core Committee member, you commit to:

  • Determining the mission and goals for Louisiana’s Road Team.
  • Designing the program and selection process for Louisiana’s Road Team drivers.
  • Working with our association (LMTA) to promote the program and recruit driver ambassadors.
  • Ensuring quality in this initiative reflecting the professionalism and pride of Louisiana’s trucking industry.

Your voice and experience as a Louisiana trucking professional are vital to building a successful program. If you’re passionate about promoting safety, professionalism, and the positive story of trucking, we’d love for you to join us.

 

Please reply to Jim Murphy at Old Dominion Freight Lines (jim.murphy@odfl.com) by October 15, 2025, if you are interested in serving on the Road Team Core Committee.

 

Together, we can build a program that showcases the best of Louisiana trucking. Thank you for your dedication to our industry — we hope you’ll consider helping us lead this important initiative.
