Carpooling...

Carpooling seems be a great solution to driving alone everyday. Especially, when the workplace has a lot of people that live in the same general area. It's a great way to save on gas and get to know your co-workers. There are a lot of places here in Lynchburg that would benefit in many different ways if they encouraged their employees to ride together. A couple of the benefits are less parking space is required, employees get to know one another, and companies passively encourage their employees to consume less energy. My wife and I have discussed briefly carpooling with people she works with. It doesn't work that well if you think the driver has to pick everyone up from their home, but if everyone met at say a parking lot that was vacant and parked there it would work. Personally, I prefer to ride. However, in the coldest winter months I would definitely carpool. Go carpool. There are plenty of sites that discuss carpooling... just search google.com.
