Since Johnson only lives a half-mile away, he uses a longboard, bicycle, forklift, tractor, truck and he will sometimes walk as well.

His favorite way to come to school is by longboard. 

“It helps me with my balance,” Johnson told Falcon News. “Downside is weather. It’s kind of hard to do the longboard in the rain.”

Johnson adds that he has never fallen off of his longboard while coming to school.

He uses several different modes of transportation because it saves money, it gives him good exercise, and it preserves the time his own car will run.

Johnson walks most of the time if he needs to bring things to school because it is easier to carry them. He will take other vehicles if they need work done on them at the school shop.
