Share the Ride in a Carpool |

Gas is expensive and traffic can slow you down. Go with others and cut the cost by sharing gas and save time by using the HOV lanes. Carpooling makes sense, it's fun and it’s a great way to make new friends!
Plan to share the drive with others in your area. Check if your worksite or school has a bulletin board or online resource for meeting potential carpool mates. For those carpoolers under 18, the driver must have an unrestricted license to be a carpool driver.
Make sure to buckle up, drive safely, find some music that everyone can enjoy, and check out the information below.
