Transit Driver Appreciation Day  

Transit Driver Appreciation Day is celebrated annually to recognize and show appreciation for the public service of transit vehicle operators.  Our operators make driving look easy, but they handle a lot behind the wheel while safely transporting our passengers to their designations.  Help us honor them by showing your appreciation for all they do.

 

SAY THANKS

Show your operator some love! 


 

Share an official commendation so the operator can be formally recognized for a job well done. Give them a shout out on social media with the hashtag #TDAD2019 or simply smile and say, "Thank you" while boarding. You can also print one of the cards below and write a few kind words on the back before giving it to your driver.​
