Historical Marker Inscription
On June 20, 2018, this location was dedicated to Danny and Cindy George, Citizen Drivers.
Living together in a small box for 29 years takes a lot of work and resourcefulness, but Danny and Cindy make it work beautifully. While one drives, the other sleeps. What drives their passion for trucking? Experiencing the food, culture and sights of North America and sharing their discoveries with others through their blogs and website.
Danny and Cidy have always been safety conscious and have over 6 million accident free miles. Their attention to safety has been recognized with multiple safety awards.
They are also dedicated to staying healthy and fit. They are always looking for the next location to bike, run or hike in order to help stay in shape on the road.
For Danny and Cindy, trucking has been the vehicle that has allowed them to financially support ministries and charities, including an orphanage in Nairobi, The Denver Rescue Mission and the Samaritan’s Purse.
The Citizen Driver program was developed to celebrate the best of the best in the trucking industry. This honor recognizes drivers who earn public respect for the industry through good citizenship, safety, community involvement, health and wellness and leadership.
