David Heller Named Truckload Carriers Association Vice President

“This promotion is the next logical step toward ensuring that the interests of the truckload segment of the trucking industry have a clear and unified voice,” said Russell Stubbs, chairman of the organization. “Working collaboratively with all necessary parties, Dave will put forth initiatives that are advantageous to truckload, and he will monitor and keep us informed about policy and regulatory issues as they relate to us.”

Heller, who had been director of safety and policy at TCA for 11 years, also worked for seven years as manager of safety programs at American Trucking Associations. He also is an adviser to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s committee on entry level driver training.

The announcement was made during TCA’s fall meeting in Washington.
