What a horrid thought, letting other people into the peace and tranquility of your personal cocoon..your car. Other people might not like your taste in music, the way you drive or worse they may wish to speak to you. For some journeys though couldn't you just consider using those other seats. The facts are painfully obvious, the more people in one car the fewer cars on the road. This means less traffic, making journeys quicker so less fuel used all round and fewer emissions. It could even save you money as you could share the cost amongst your fellow passengers.The question is how and who to share with?
There are a number of websites that will help you find people who may travel your route. they also offer the important advice on personal safety which you do need to consider. Don't fancy sharing with a complete stranger, well then there's your own workplace. You know you all go to the same place everyday, so why not send an email round to see who might be up for starting your own pool sharing club. Why not ask the office next door as well? Again do think about your personal safety and also check with your insurer. With pool lanes a likely initiative on many of our busiest motorways now might be the time to find a friend.
