Hester, who has driven for Overnite for more than a decade,
out-scored all other drivers to take the five-axle championship.
The victory earned Hester a trip to Tampa, Fla., in August, where
he will compete with other state titleholders in the 2005 National
Truck Driving Championships. Also delivering a strong performance
at the Georgia championships this weekend were Overnite Atlanta
driver Paul Foster, who placed second in the four-axle class, and
Scott Cain, who operates out of the company's North Atlanta service
center, who took third in the tanker division. In all, 10 Overnite
drivers competed at this year's Georgia Truck Driving
Championships. In addition to negotiating the competition course,
all competitors are rated on their driving skills and scored on a
written test and a personal interview. All drivers taking part in
the state championships also must have excellent safety records.
