We all know the bad things about car sharing...
-
Small talk
-
Awkward silence
-
Different music tastes
But there are lots of good things too!
-
Save money
On petrol, parking, and wear and tear.
-
Connect
Meet new people and make new friends.
-
Give your car a rest
Reduce the wear and tear on your car.
-
Leave on time
A good motivator to leave work on time and get out of bed in the mornings.
-
Reduce pollution
Two people car sharing who’d normally both drive halves CO2 output.
-
The company
On a long commute, or if you're stuck in traffic, you have each other to keep company!
