Putnam resident
earns safe driver
award
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Landstar System, Inc. a worldwide, asset-light provider of integrated transportation management solutions delivering safe, specialized transportation logistics services, has recognized Martin Walsh of Putnam, as a 1 Million Mile Safe Driver. Walsh has driven 1 million consecutive miles without a preventable accident.
Walsh is one of 145 men and women who make up the 2013 class of Landstar Million Mile Safe Drivers recently honored at an awards ceremony in Savannah, Ga., for their outstanding safety records and professionalism behind the wheel. Collectively, these 145 owner-operators have safely driven a total of 165 million miles – a distance that would cover the 4 million miles of public roads in the United States more than 41 times.
On average, it takes a truck operator 10 years to travel a million miles. This distance would take the typical driver of a passenger vehicle 67 years – around the time of their 83rd birthday – to complete. 
 “Martin is among the safest and most talented professional owner-operators in the industry,” said Landstar Chairman and CEO Henry Gerkens. “Putnam should be very proud of him and his outstanding accomplishment.”
