UK lorry driver Stuart Harvey has a penchant for solitude. Raised in a trucker family, he believes he was born for the road.
Hailing from Hoddesdon, north of London, the heavy hauler’s grandfather used to ship Army tanks and other equipment hundreds of miles across the island.
But, his passion for trucking also stems from a neurological condition he was born with—The 29-year-old, who’s been driving for the past eight years, is autistic.
Despite coping with the disorder, which often makes communication and socializing difficult, Harvey points out its advantages; individuals on the autism spectrum sometimes exhibit gifts of unusual intelligence.
