This marks the second year in a row that Aroostook County has received a Safe Driving Award, having also been recognized for its performance in 2024.
“This recognition really belongs to our county employees who are behind the wheel every day serving the people of Aroostook County,” County Administrator Justin Tibbetts said. “Winning this award two years in a row shows the continued commitment our employees have made to safety and responsible driving. We appreciate their efforts and want to congratulate everyone who helped the County earn this recognition.
