“The veteran driver is fully alert and walking around Halifax Medical Center. True to his jovial nature, he has also been joking around with staff, friends and family while spending time playing with his two daughters.”

The team shared on Tuesday (Feb. 18) Newman was “awake and speaking with family and doctors.”
