Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

On November 19, 2008, William D. Zollars, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of YRC Worldwide Inc. (the “Company”) will deliver a company presentation at the Stephens’ Fall Investment Conference. The presentation will be available on audio webcast through the Company’s website, www.yrcw.com, and will be available for 30 days. A copy of the slide show is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

The slide show contains references to bank EBITDA and bank debt. Management uses bank EBITDA and bank debt to assess the Company’s compliance with the debt covenants in its credit and ABS facilities. These measurements should not be construed as better measurement than net income/loss or total debt, as defined by generally accepted accounting principles. A reconciliation of net income to bank EBITDA and total debt to bank debt is set forth below.
