Have you met Cosmo?

Cosmo is the only back-seat driver we approve of. Cosmo, the blind spot, appeared out of nowhere one evening somewhere outside the view of a driver’s side mirrors. He was adopted by CFI as a reminder that we should be “Constantly Observing Stationary and Moving Objects.”

Safety Rodeo

Missouri Truck Driving Championships

At CFI, safety is not just a Core Value; it’s our number one priority. Every year, CFI professional drivers have the opportunity to qualify for the Missouri Truck Driving Championships (MoTDC). Those interested demonstrate their knowledge and professionalism by completing a written test, pre-trip inspection, and skills test. The top qualifiers represent CFI at MoTDC where you will see a lively cheer section of CFI associates supporting our professional drivers and demonstrating our shared commitment to safety.

The 4 Principles of Safety

Our safety standards are no joke. Our 4 Principles of Safety or 4P’s, help to maintain a safe, secure driving experience for our professional drivers. Being prepared for your trips, perceptive on the roads, practicing efficiently, and preventing distractions are all ways we practice safety at CFI.

BE Prepare

1

Come prepared for your trip by scheduling your stops for the day, conducting your pre-trip inspection, and planning around weather delays.

BE Perceptive

2

Stay aware of your surroundings and prevent mishaps by continuously scanning the roadway, checking your mirrors, and watching for changes in road conditions.

USE PROPER PRACTICE

3

Proper practice means using the best approach for a given situation. Cutting corners leads to unsafe conditions. Make sure you understand the proper practice before any execution.

PREVENT DISTRACTION

4

Eliminate anything that will distract your focus from the roads. This includes cell phones, items obstructing your view, or personal issues at home.

Cfi Trophy

Driver Recognition

Our Trophy Case

Honk if you love our drivers! Our professional drivers are at the heart of everything we do. We honor the tremendous efforts and sacrifices they put into their jobs daily. Million Milers, Driver of the Quarter, and Driver of the Year (per division) are a few ways we recognize our drivers. This recognition is one small way for us to say thank you for the generous efforts they make to keep North America moving.
