Phoenix Driver Sales
Representative, Ina Daly, Breaks the Gender Barrier, Becomes First Female Ever
to Win a Competition Class
Con-way Freight, a less-than-truckload (LTL) carrier and
subsidiary of Con-way Inc. (NYSE:CNW), announced today that Ina Daly, a driver
sales representative from the company’s Phoenix service center, was named the
2013 Bendix National Truck Driving Championships (NTDC) Tank Truck Champion.
Daly stands alone as the first and only female professional
driver to capture first place in a division at the trucking industry’s premier
safety and skills competition, often referred to as the “Super Bowl of Safety.”
She deftly maneuvered her truck to victory, outscoring nearly 50 other drivers
from Maine to Hawaii who competed in her class at the event in Salt Lake City.
