Local UPS Driver Gene McCool Honored for Safety | Business

UPS is proud to announce that Emmitt “Gene” McCool has been inducted into its Circle of Honor. UPS’s Circle of Honor is the highest safety honor a UPS driver can achieve; each driver must amass at least 25 years without an avoidable accident to qualify for induction.

UPS has long enjoyed an outstanding reputation for safety in the transportation industry. UPS drivers log over two billion miles a year on U.S. roads and average less than one accident per million miles driven thanks to drivers like Gene, who recognize that safety is a way of life.

Gene is a package car driver out of the Jacksonville facility and provides service on Atlantic Avenue. He and his wife, Donna, live in Jacksonville. They have three children: Patrick, who is 35 years old, Keghan, who is 24, and Lyndsey, who is 20.
