Luis "Benji" Benjamin - 3 Million Mile Driver

Also known around the office as "Smiley," Benji started working for the CalArk program for Puerto Rican drivers in 1998. He already had eight years of experience driving there. He'd followed in the footsteps of his grandfather, who owned a trucking company. 

Trucking may be different in some ways in this part of the country than in his, but the late-night hours of minding the speedometer and the importance of arriving on time are the same. He says he loves Central Hauling because of the family atmosphere and can't imagine working anywhere else.

Benji has three sons and enjoys riding his Harley. We enjoy that he's chosen to partner with us for so many years and miles. What an incredible milestone! Thank you for driving through three million miles with us! We're so proud of you for steering the way.
