Fewer Drivers
The less drivers that are on the road, the less chance there is for a collision. This can also mean less tempers competing against rush hour or other stressors.
Safer Driving
Generally speaking, those who carpool are more likely to be safer drivers. This is because there’s more at stake when you have passengers in your car. Drivers are also less likely to be stressed and make rash decisions because they get to spend time with a friend on the way to work as they zip past the sluggish traffic.
Less Car Issues
Carpooling can decrease the amount of wear and tear on yours and your friend’s vehicles because your driving them less. This means less repairs which can save you money and can reduce the amount of vehicle malfunctions on the road.
