               Statement Under Oath of Principal Executive Officer
       Regarding Facts and Circumstances Relating to Exchange Act Filings

I, Gregory T. Swienton, state and attest that:

    (1)  To the best of my knowledge, based upon a review of the covered
         reports of Ryder System, Inc. (the "Company"), and, except as
         corrected or supplemented in a subsequent covered report:

         o    no covered report contained an untrue statement of a material
              fact as of the end of the period covered by such report (or in
              the case of a report on Form 8-K or definitive proxy materials,
              as of the date on which it was filed); and

         o    no covered report omitted to state a material fact necessary to
              make the statements in the covered report, in light of the
              circumstances under which they were made, not misleading as of
              the end of the period covered by such report (or in the case of a
              report on Form 8-K or definitive proxy materials, as of the date
              on which it was filed).

    (2)  I have reviewed the contents of this statement with the Company's
         audit committee.

    (3)  In this statement under oath, each of the following, if filed on or
         before the date of this statement, is a "covered report":

         o    Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31,
              2001 of Ryder System, Inc.;

         o    all reports on Form 10-Q, all reports on Form 8-K and all
              definitive proxy materials of Ryder System, Inc. filed with the
              Commission subsequent to the filing of the Form 10-K identified
              above; and

         o    any amendments to any of the foregoing.
