Regional & State Championships
The Truck Driving Championships are a project of the TXTA Safety Management Council (SMC), the local Safety Councils and TXTA Fleet Maintenance Council (FMC) that seek to promote safety and professionalism among commercial drivers. Three regional championships are held in the spring. Drivers are tested on their ability to maneuver and control their vehicles under a number of difficult test situations. The 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners from each regional championship advance to the state championship. Drivers that qualify for the National Championship will travel to Minneapolis, Minnesota in August. State Championships will be held in Waco, TX from June 6-7, 2025.
ATA National Championships
The ATA (American Trucking Associations) National Truck Driving Championships will take place August 20-23, 2025 in Minneapolis, MN. Competition at the national level will include the first place winners in each class of competition from the state championships. ATA qualification rules for nationals must be met.
