ERIE, PA… Owner-operator Brian Bucenell from Richmond, Virginia was chosen as a finalist in the 35th Goodyear Highway Hero program. The winner was chosen at a ceremony held in conjunction with the 2018 Mid-America Trucking Show this past March in Louisville, Kentucky.

Brian sandwiched a suspect with his trailer in a high-speed chase on the Ohio Turnpike last year. He effectively brought the chase to an end after State Troopers chased car for about 20 miles at speeds in excess of 100 mph.

Although Brian was not chosen as Goodyear’s Highway Hero, he said he was honored to be a finalist and didn’t feel like he was a hero. His friends and work associates at US Bulk, where Brian is leased, think otherwise, as US Bulk owner Craig Goodelle and other staff members took the time to attend the Highway Hero Ceremony in Louisville.
