My commute already takes long enough—won’t carpooling make it longer?
Usually, the result is quite the opposite; teaming up with someone else may give you access to time-saving carpool lanes. On average, Southland commuters using carpool lanes shave 36 minutes a day from their drive…a full third of their total commute time. That savings in time usually makes up for the few minutes it might take to meet with your fellow passengers. The farther your commute, the more time you’ll tend to save.
