After 40 years and a million accident-free miles, Glendora’s post office letter carrier retires

SOURCEKTLA

After four decades behind the wheel and a million miles driven without crashing, Glendora’s post office letter carrier is calling it quits.

John Bromstead is retiring from the Glendora U.S. Postal Service station with the elite National Safety Council Million-Mile Award – an exclusive club for USPS workers who drove over a million miles without so much as a scratch.

According to a USPS release celebrating Bromstead’s accomplishments and retirement, driving a million miles is comparable to driving from Earth to the moon and back – more than four times.

His secret to success? It’s all in the mindset.

“It’s not just about all the miles, it’s about showing up every day, staying alert, and caring about the people on my route,” said Bromstead.
