89-Year-Old Loveland Truck Driver Goes Viral After Facebook Post
Loveland resident Dave Sheets has been a truck driver for over 25 years, and at 89 years old, he has no plans to stop.
The grandfather went viral on Wednesday (May 5) after the North Dakota Highway Patrol commended him on Facebook for his commitment to safety. His dedication not only earned him a Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance decal, but also caught the eyes of thousands across the Internet.
While most wouldn t dream of working at his age, Sheets doesn t seem to mind especially because he s driving his own 2000 Peterbilt semi-truck, which his granddaughter Shawna described to us as immaculate .

While special emphasis will be placed on driver logs and lights during this year s Roadcheck, it s still open season on the rest of the vehicle and the person in the driver s seat.
Beginning last Monday,
CCJ published a six-part series on Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance’s Roadcheck blitz, which kicks off today.
I hope the nearly bumper-to-bumper series was a simple, high-level reminder of basic maintenance best practices. Maybe it served as the impetus for a thorough system check just in case.
Safety and solid maintenance fundamentals are always important, and they are no more important today through Thursday than they were all of last month, or from this coming Friday and beyond. Safety is an everyday thing and there s really nothing special about CVSA s Roadcheck.
