Man Rides Wheelchair Through Sunshine State

Published May 29th, 2009

David Whittaker wants to draw attention to homeless veterans, and he's doing so one highway at a time.
Whittaker started his trek about two weeks ago in Key West.
On Friday, he was just north of Ocala when TV20 caught up with him.
He plans to travel all the way to Washington -- making it there sometime in the fall.
