The event, organized in the U.S. by Women In Trucking (WIT) to honor female commercial drivers and recognize them for their service, has been held annually at the Mid-America Trucking Show in Louisville, Kentucky since 2009. OBAC and WTFC have partnered with WIT and hosted three previous Salutes in Canada, with a view to bringing the popular celebration to Canada on a regular basis. 

A hallmark of the event is a group photo of all the women dressed in the signature red Salute T-shirt.
