With the price of gasoline these days being fairly high, I've noticed an increase of posts every now and then about people looking to car pool.

Thought it might be helpful to create a sub-forum on this. People could post messages along the lines of the subject being....

"To 407 & Woodbine, 7:30 AM and 5:30 PM"

...i.e. showing where you want to car pool to (assuming that you are starting from Milton) and what times you want to leave Milton approx each day.

In the message itself you could put more details... like which highways preferred (i.e. 407, 401, etc...) or other info.

With there being so many people living in Milton but working in Mississauga, Brampton, Etobicoke, North York, etc... Thought more people might want to try and give car pooling as an option to save money on both gasoline, wear-and-tear on your vehicle, and if using 407 also being able to share/split toll costs.

Plus, hey it's good for the environment too. But I know most people think with their wallets first on how much money they might save each month.

Carpooling (also known as car-sharing, ride-sharing, lift-sharing and covoiturage), is the sharing of car journeys so that more than one person travels in a car.

By having more people using one vehicle, carpooling reduces each person's travel costs such as fuel costs, tolls, and the stress of driving. Carpooling is also seen as a more environmentally friendly and sustainable way to travel as sharing journeys reduces carbon emissions, traffic congestion on the roads, and the need for parking spaces. Authorities often encourage carpooling, especially during high pollution periods and high fuel prices.

In 2009 carpooling represented 10% of commute travel in the United States,[1] most of which involves spouses.
