A carpool consists of at least 2 commuters who rideshare to and from work using
their personal vehicles by either sharing the driving/riding or driving/riding
only.
Sharing the Driving/Riding
The most common carpool arrangement involves commuters sharing the driving and
riding duties. For example, in a two-person carpool one commuter drives
one week using his or her personal vehicle and pays for the vehicle
operating costs, while the other commuter rides. The next week the commuters’
roles are reversed.
Driving/Riding Only
The other carpool arrangement involves one or more commuters driving only and
one or more commuters riding only. For example, in a two-person carpool one
commuter does all the driving using his or her personal vehicle, while the
other commuter only rides and pays an equal share of the driver’s vehicle operating
costs.
