I have written quite a number of times on carpooling and their benefits. However, none has been that famous to be featured in the evening news, and on CBS Evening News with Katie “the legs” Couric, too!
Introducing Divide The Ride, if you have not known about it yet. This is a free carpool system where you can check out at http://www.dividetheride.com, or participate in, where families carpool and divide the ride for their children’s school or other activities. If you have school going children, I am sure you understand the duty of ferrying them to one activity or another.
Well, there’s no longer the need to do this alone if you divide the ride with a neighbor or someone in the community who also has children who are in the same activities.
The difference between Divide The Ride and other carpooling programs that you may have come across is that Divide The Ride will only match you with people that you already know. So it is totally safe to participate in it.
