“The most critical delivery is getting home safely.” – Nate Fauber – CAT Solo Driver – Dedicated Solutions Peoria, IL. 

For CRST’s CAT Solo Driver Nate Fauber, safety is more than just personal responsibility. “The reason I focus on safety every day is not just for me, but for others on the road,” he shared.

“The reason I focus on safety every day is not just for me, but for others on the road.”

This commitment ties back to a simple but powerful truth: “The most critical delivery is getting home safely.” Whether it’s checking his mirrors, maintaining a safe distance from other vehicles, or staying alert to changing road conditions, Nate knows that small actions can help prevent accidents. 

“I try to stay aware of my surroundings, not just my vehicle, but the traffic and drivers around me.” 

Nate’s approach to safety reminds us that we can all play a part in making sure everyone makes it home. Staying safe isn’t just a personal victory – it’s a collective responsibility.
