Carpooling (also known as ride-sharing or, in the UK, lift-sharing and even, confusingly, as car sharing), is shared use of a car, in particular for commuting to work, often by people who each have a car but travel together to save costs. There are sometimes special facilities for carpoolers, including designated pick-up points and high-occupancy vehicle lanes which are also at time opened up to designated cars with multiple riders. Carpool projects have been around in fairly structured form going back to the mid-seventies, and in recent years have begun to make much more extensive use of the internet and software support systems. With the recent advent of mobile phones and SMS, there is a push to integrate these technologies into more flexible systems on the web.
Ride sharing is also an excellent idea to get to and connect with people at other large events, such as music festivals and conferences.
Carpools may be formed through word of mouth by friends and colleagues, or through online carpooling services.
