We’ve all been there…backed halfway out of a parking spot (or our driveway) when another driver flies by, hoping to get to their destination faster. Our August Kindness on the Road Contest winner, Maria Theresa Dulay, shows others grace by patiently allowing drivers to pull out of parking spaces. 

Your August mission should you choose to accept: Let three drivers pull out of their driveway or parking space during your commute.

Please Spare a Few & Wait; You Won't Be Late

"Just like a rainbow brightens a rainy day, a simple act of kindness in a parking lot can bring a touch of positivity to our daily routines. Even in the hustle and bustle of our lives, small gestures can create a spectrum of happiness and connection. Let's turn every parking spot—at Stanford and elsewhere—into an opportunity to spread joy." Maria Theresa Dulay, Senior Research Scientist
