Carpool

Why drive alone when you could ride together? Our ridematching tool makes it easy to connect with people heading the same way you are. Using real-time data, you’ll see who’s nearby, when they’re traveling, and how you can share the ride.

Reasons to ride together

  • Save money – split gas and parking

  • Enjoy faster, more reliable commutes – carpoolers use EZPASS lanes for free on I‑394, I‑35W, and I‑35E

  • Reduce stress – share the driving or relax as a passenger

  • Go green – fewer cars on the road means cleaner air

  • Build connections – ride with coworkers or neighbors and make commuting social

  • Choose your fit – carpool for flexibility or vanpool for long‑distance savings

Carpool etiquette tips

  • Be on time – respect everyone’s schedule

  • Share costs fairly – agree on gas, tolls, or parking splits

  • Rotate driving – balance mileage and wear on vehicles

  • Communicate clearly – text or message if plans change

  • Set comfort rules – music, food, or quiet time preferences

  • Choose convenient meet‑up spots – near home, work, or transit hubs

  • Have a backup plan – decide what happens if someone can’t make it
