COLONIAL HEIGHTS, Va. (WRIC) -- A car show and trucking safety event took place in Colonial Heights on Saturday as part of celebrations to mark the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles' (DMV) 100th anniversary with proceeds to benefit Make-A-Wish Greater Virginia. On Saturday, Nov. 16, the "Trucking Through the Decades: A Safety Showcase" event took place at Keystone Antique Truck & Tractor Museum from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. with a 125,000-square-foot display of vintage road trucks, classic cars, automotive memorabilia and more. Dr. Gerald F. Lackey, Commissioner at the DMV, said the event was their fourth car show with a focus on trucks. According to Dr. Lackey, the event offered opportunities for attendees to learn more about the automobile industry in the United States and the commercial aspects of it. "What kid doesn't want to climb into a truck? I would say there's a kid in all of us because what man or woman doesn't want to climb into a truck and see how it really works," Dr. Lackey said. "So, if you're at all curious about trucks, you see them on the road, you want to get up close to them, learn a little bit about them, I think it's an awesome opportunity." The event was free for those to attend with proceeds from 50/50 drawings and donations to benefit Make-A-Wish Greater Virginia. "All of our car shows serve two purposes: one to celebrate the 100-year anniversary of the DMV, and the second is to give back to a worthy cause, which in this case is the young men and women who are sponsored by Make-A-Wish," Dr. Lackey said. Richmond resident and Make-A-Wish guest Landon Cole attended the event and said the organization gives people "the best day ever." "My wish was to go to Microsoft headquarters in Seattle," Cole said. "I got to sit down with some of the creators of Minecraft and eat lunch with them."
