Landstar presented its BCO Lifetime Achievement Award to Landstar Three Million Mile Safe Driver and Landstar Roadstar® recipient Dale Reuman earlier this month at the 2025 Landstar BCO All-Star Celebration.
Reuman, who lives in Las Vegas, Nevada, has no record of an accident or a moving violation in the 35 years he’s been an independent owner-operator with the Landstar network. Reuman reached his first million miles of safe driving with Landstar in 2004. He was named a Landstar Roadstar® honoree in 2013. The following year, he earned his Two Million Mile Safe Driver award. He was inducted as a Three Million Mile Safe Driver in 2020. He has earned a Gold Landstar Star of Quality award for going above and beyond what’s expected of a Landstar business capacity owner (BCO), Landstar’s term for independent truck owner-operators leased to a Landstar motor carrier. Reuman has also been recognized outside of his impressive, three-decade career as a Landstar BCO. He has earned two consecutive National Safety Council Driver Honors.
During the award presentation, Landstar President and CEO Frank Lonegro commended Reuman on his commitment to safety. “Thank you for three decades of dedication to Landstar and to exemplifying safety, professionalism and excellence, as you’ve navigated well over 3 million miles,” said Lonegro. “That kind of consistency and commitment to safety is nothing short of remarkable — and it speaks volumes about the kind of professional Dale is.”
Of the tens of thousands of owner-operators who have been leased to Landstar during the Company’s history, only 12 BCOs have received this prestigious award.
Landstar’s BCO Lifetime Achievement Award was introduced during the 2012 BCO All-Star Celebration. To be considered for the honor, nominees must be active or retired Landstar business capacity owners who have been with Landstar for at least 20 consecutive years.
Nominees must be at least a Two Million Mile Landstar Safe Driver and have consistently demonstrated professionalism by developing a positive reputation with regulatory and enforcement personnel, customers, agents and Landstar employees, as well as through industry recognition. The honoree must also be a Landstar Roadstar recipient. The Roadstar designation is one of Landstar’s highest honors for truck owner-operators, awarded to the “best of the best” for their high levels of safety, productivity and excellence in customer service.
Landstar’s independent agents enjoy the administrative, sales and technological support of a financially secure industry leader, along with the freedom that comes with owning your own business.
