Random Acts Of Kindness When Driving

Spare a little kindness in you with the rest of the world on National Random Acts of Kindness Day. On February 17th, join thousands of people nationwide becoming an RAKTIVIST by doing something nice, even if it’s something small! 

The Random Acts Of Kindness website has a number of encouraging kindness acts to spark some inspiration. Esserman International Volkswagen has a few favorites;

• Show some love to well-parked vehicles! Parking is something that takes a significant amount of practice, and for some drivers, even years of practice! Acknowledge the effort a driver made to stay in between those lines. Parallel parked cars deserve a double compliment! 

• Service your vehicle regularly! Not only are you being kind to yourself by saving money, but also kind to the environment by creating less unnecessary pollution an unserviced car may create. For kind deals on car maintenance service, visit the Esserman International Volkswagen service department. 

• Use the cruise control feature! This feature is quite an eco-friendly and convenient tool on the road. It reduces unwanted emissions but also improves mileage by an incredible 15%. Save yourself some money at the pump, be kind to the environment, and enjoy a smooth and hassle-free ride with just one easy to use the feature.

• Spread kindness on the road! Smile at nearby drivers at a stoplight. A smile is contagious and is bound to make someone’s day even just a little better. Wave to signal and use your blinkers for safe driving. Let people merge into your lane, they might be late to an important event or appointment! 

• Park somewhere else! Give up your closer parking space for the person behind you. Although it seems like a small act, the other driver will appreciate it a lot! It also gives you the opportunity to be kind to yourself by allowing for a longer walk, helping you get some more exercise in for the day. 

Other random acts of kindness ideas we encourage are:

• Leave a generous tip

• Start a community garden

• Buy from local businesses

• Start a fundraiser

• Leave a good review for a business
