There are far too many neighbors that have short fuses and instead of being understanding and reasonable, they choose to be jerks when there has been some inconvenience for them, but not this guy. When he noticed a young boy who was almost daily riding through his flat driveway to enjoy his bicycle ride, he made sure to encourage him and not the other way around. We need more people like him in this world.
A kindly neighbour has drawn a race track on his driveway after a young boy kept speeding along the concrete on his balance bike.
Dave Phoxe, from Salt Lake City in Utah, kept getting alerts every time the boy veered into his driveway during daily walks with his family.

The 47-year-old decided to draw the outline of a racetrack in chalk - fit with hairpin chicanes and slow-down signs.
As the boy went past, footage from Mr Phoxe's security camera showed him using the track to speed along.
Each time wind and rain washed the track away, Mr Phoxe replaced it with a new one.
Before long multiple kids - and even adults riding bikes or pushing strollers - joined in to put their skills to the test.
After uploading the video to his YouTube channel CanyonChasers, with a playful caption about how he deals with kids playing in his driveway, it quickly went viral with millions of views and thousands of comments praising his work.
"Every night I would get an alert from my driveway security camera, and at first I was a bit annoyed, but then I found myself looking forward to the evening alert. And then inspiration struck, in the form of my wife giving me this great idea. What transpired has turned into the best part of an otherwise dreary pandemic summer."

He said:
"I'm a little embarrassed to admit how excited I was to see how he reacted - the video is just so cute I think he did five laps that first night. "
"You can see that mom notices the track outline first and you can tell she's explaining it to him, and even at the distance you can totally see when it clicks, and he goes for it."
"A little bit of joy goes a long way - we're all quarantined, we're all frustrated and tired, wouldn't we all be just a little bit better off if we just went for a bike ride and remembered what it was like to be a kid, even if just for a few minutes?"
It quickly went viral with millions of views and thousands of comments praising his work.
Someone asked if he had met the kid and he responded
