A wheel is a wonderful thing and four of them can make for an easier life. Millions x 4, however, burden our planet. Human ingenuity met the problem head on. Googling “ride sharing” brought up 19 million hits.  Rideshare.com is one of them, a free national carpool service to connect people interested in sharing a commute.

Experiment with car pools until you find one that suits you. Some car pools have a no talking policy while  others function almost as support groups.
