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 in June. Drivers that qualify for the National Championship will travel to Indianapolis, Indiana in August. For questions about regional and state competitions, please contact the contest chairs listed below. State Championships will be held in Waco, TX June 7-8, 2024.
ATA National Championships

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.
