Can you Identify this spider

Dunedin, FL

Sorry this picture is so horrible, it was dark and the windshield reflected the flash. Little info that may help. I live in Florida, and there are a ton of these spiders always on our cars which a gigantic oak tree hangs over our driveway. The color of the spider is a very, very light tan, and has this darker shade pattern on it's back. It can be seen in the photo. It's pretty small, and I can't say that I've seen any bigger than a quarter including the legs. I'm scared to death of bugs and spiders and of course my husband and brother make it worse by telling me it's a brown recluse or a brown widow, please ease my mind. I attempted googling it and looking here at photos to identify it but it creeped me out so bad I was sick to my stomach and couldn't research it any further. Thank you!

This spider is harmless, it is either a wolf spider (family Lycosidae) or a grass spider (family Agelenidae).
