A new idea for congestion relief that's a real commute upgrade. |
|
With legislation on congestion pricing in the pipeline for NYC, The Green New Deal generating serious debate, and cities and towns everywhere contemplating how to ease traffic congestion and reduce emissions, there's one solution that's already live and transforming rush hour for thousands of commuters across the U.S. |
|
Carpooling isn't new and "slugging" has been D.C. area tradition since the 70s, but the Waze Carpool App is a game changer that makes commuting (dare we say it?) fun by offering a fresh, social way to share the ride to places you commute like work or school, cut costs, and help save the planet in the process. |
|
Waze Carpoolers choose riders and drivers based on profiles, star ratings, distance, and price and can filter by gender, co-workers/workplace or other custom groups. |
|
As a user, you can choose to drive or ride, and match with people based on route and time of day. Use the Waze app to drive, and the Waze Carpool app to catch a ride. |
|
|
|
How It Works. To drive, download and open Waze. Tap the icon in the bottom right corner to match with riders on your route & offer a ride. To ride, download and open Waze Carpool & request a ride from a driver going your way. |
|
Who's in the Carpool. Commuters in your area who use Waze & Waze Carpool to get to and from work or school. Your matches are based on criteria like route, time added to drive, and walking distance (if you're a rider). |
|
Payments. Prices are set to reimburse drivers proportionally for gas and other ride-related costs. Payment via GPay is securely handled through the app, so there's no awkwardness of a cash transaction. |
Up to 5 Wazers Per Ride. Waze Carpool allows up to 5 Wazers (1 driver & 4 riders) to share a ride. After the pick-up and drop-off points are set, other riders can join the carpool along that same route. |
|
Company Partnerships. A number of savvy businesses are becoming Waze Carpool partners, easing their employees commutes and reducing traffic in their communities for free. |
