June is recognized across Canada as Commercial Vehicle Safety Awareness Month, an important reminder that safety on our highways starts long before the wheels begin turning.
From proactive maintenance to responsible driving habits, every detail matters when it comes to keeping drivers, fleets, and the motoring public safe. Here are a few important reminders for drivers and carriers during inspection season and beyond:

1 - Complete thorough pre-trip inspections
Check all lights, tires, brakes, fluid levels, and ensure cargo is properly secured before every trip. Preventative checks help avoid costly downtime and improve highway safety.
2 - Stay compliant and organized
Keep logbooks updated, permits accessible, and review carrier safety profiles regularly to ensure everything is current and inspection-ready.
3 - Prioritize driver wellness
Fatigue management is critical. Taking proper rest breaks, minimizing distractions, and staying alert behind the wheel helps everyone get home safely.
4 - Adjust for changing conditions
Weather and road conditions can change quickly. Slowing down during rain, fog, or heavy traffic helps maintain control and reduce risk.
At Skelton Truck Lines, safety is more than a requirement; it’s a responsibility we carry every mile.

We often share photos captured by our drivers as they travel across the continent, offering a glimpse into places many of us may never see.

But this time, Slava reminds us that sometimes the best views are closer to home. This great shot from beautiful Port Perry, just 30 minutes from our main terminal, is proof that you don’t have to go far to find something worth capturing.
Thanks Slava for the great shot!

Behind every delivery is a purpose and at Skelton Truck Lines, that purpose often means transporting life-saving healthcare products to the people who depend on them.
On this “Thank a Trucker” day, we recognize the professionalism, care, and responsibility it takes to do this job right. Our drivers aren’t just moving freight, they’re helping ensure critical supplies arrive safely, on time, and without compromise.
It’s a role that demands focus, pride, and a deep understanding of what’s at stake. And it’s one our team carries out every day with quiet dedication.
To our Skelton drivers, and to drivers across the industry, thank you for the work you do and the difference you make on every mile.

Foot pain is something many drivers know all too well.
The good news? A few simple habits can make a big difference. Adjust your seat so your legs and feet are properly supported and take regular breaks to stretch and move!ut on your knees, hips, and back as well.
This month on Health on the Highway, we’re highlighting the importance of paying attention to what your feet are telling you. Whether it’s stiffness, heel pain, or that burning, tingling feeling, these are signs your body needs a reset.
The good news? A few simple habits can make a big difference, Adjust your seat so your legs and feet are properly supported and take regular breaks to stretch and move!
Wear comfortable, supportive footwear and stretch and flex your feet before hopping down from your truck. At the end of your day, remove your boots and wash and dry your feet. If you’re relaxing, elevating your feet for a short time can improve circulation and reduce pain.
Foot health might not always be top of mind, but it plays a big role in overall comfort, focus, and safety on the road. Taking care of the small things helps you stay strong for the long haul.

If memory serves us right, this was Bruce Brenton’s first Kenworth “Anteater” and what a game changer it was!
This 1989 T600 helped redefine what drivers expected from a conventional cab. With its distinctive sloped hood and set-back front axle, it was built with aerodynamics and fuel efficiency in mind at a time when rising fuel costs were front and centre.
While the design turned heads and sparked a few debates, it didn’t take long for drivers to appreciate the real advantages, improved visibility, a tighter turning radius, and performance backed by a powerful CAT engine under the hood.
A bold step forward then, and still an iconic piece of trucking history today.
