ANN ARBOR, Mich. - March 19, 2008 - Con-way Freight came out a winner at the
recent Michigan Trucking Association (MTA) Annual Safety Awards Banquet. The
less-than-truckload carrier and subsidiary of Con-way Inc. (NYSE: CNW) today

Winners are selected based on factors including miles driven, types of
driving, number of accidents and other safety indicators. The awards are
sponsored by the Great West Casualty Company, one of the largest insurers of
trucking companies in the United States.

"The fact that we won this award two years in a row is a testament to our
