Other Events
   
 
On February 1, 2012, a Form 8-K for another company (Covenant Transportation Group, Inc.), with the accession number 0001008886-12-000010, was erroneously filed under Knight Transportation, Inc.'s records.  The SEC has been notified and a request to have the mistaken filing deleted has been submitted.  The problem was due to a software technical problem beyond the control of the Company.  The erroneous filing was made after the close of the SEC's filing system so it will automatically appear on the SEC's filing system when it opens on February 2, 2012.  Please disregard this erroneous Form 8-K filing.
