City, OK – March 2023 / Newsmaker Alert: Love’s
Travel Stops recently awarded 140 Gemini
Motor Transport drivers more than $2.3 million in bonuses for their
commitment to safety last year. Gemini, a member of the Love’s Family of
Companies, operates a fleet of more than 1,600 drivers who transport fuel
to Love’s Travel Stops across the country.
“The
safety of our drivers and those on the roadways around us is our top priority,
and rewarding drivers for maintaining Gemini’s high standard of safety
is exciting to see,” said Jeremy Gravely, director of Gemini. “The Safe
Drivers Program is an investment that’s unmatched in the industry, and
one that’s crucial to the success of Gemini and Love’s Travel Stops.”

Bonuses
are based on safety credits awarded to drivers on an annual basis. To earn
one credit, drivers must remain accident- and ticket-free and have no fuel-related
incidents over the course of one year. Drivers must also pass all U.S.
Department of Transportation and Gemini inspections and adhere to Gemini’s
stringent safety policies. Once drivers collect five safety credits, they’re
eligible to receive the bonus.
Bonuses
are given on a five and 10-year basis. This year, 96 recipients received
a five-year bonus, and 44 recipients received a 10-year bonus. Gemini drivers
have been paid more than $24 million in safety bonuses through the safety
credit program.
Last
month, Love’s announced that Gemini
is continuing its commitment to safety in 2023 by adding 325 new trucks
and replacing 250 older-mileage trucks. If you’re interested in joining
