Safety award-winning Flagstaff UPS driver has never been busier than during COVID-19 - Arizona Daily Sun

He wears that iconic brown uniform like all other United Parcel Service drivers, but there’s something special sewn onto Art Milne’s left sleeve: a patch called the Circle of Honor, attesting to a sterling 25-year safety record on the road.

“When you’re delivering around town, people notice it,” said the Flagstaff resident, a UPS driver for nearly 29 years who recently entered the company’s Circle of Honor. “They say, ‘Wow, he’s decorated.’”

These days, though, there is more to safety for a UPS driver than just avoiding accidents. This past year, dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic has been perhaps the most challenging of Milne’s career.

For certain, it’s been the busiest.
