How are carpools typically organized?
• One person can drive, while the passengers contribute only for gas and parking. • Participants can alternate driving and not exchange money. • The carpool driver may pick up passengers at their homes, or they may meet at a central location like a carpool lot. • Collectively, the carpool participants make up the rules and determine the schedule. • A carpool can consist of co-workers, neighbors, friends, spouses, family members, roommates, or someone you just met through the Michigan Rideshare database. Carpooling doesn’t require a commitment of five days a week. It can be once a week, every other week, or whatever works with your schedule.
