Driving can be therapeutic in a way that’s hard to describe. I could find some sort of satisfaction driving almost anything; bus, forklift, riding mower, Zamboni… something about steering a machine around a space just scratches the itch. It helps if you have the right vehicle and a manual transmission to maximize the stimming potential.

I wouldnt impose this on all of society, but I’m sure there are others like this, that’s why so many people dream of being a bus driver

I recently started working out heel toe shifting and it's super fun.

Especially the person who would rather watch tiktok videos instead of focusing on driving their Kia Telluride or whatever

Same reason I love sailing at night. Just pure nothing but the view.
