Carpooling around the world

Carpooling best practices

Sharing transport costs offers significant savings, both for drivers and passengers. Carpooling brings numerous benefits, both economic and environmental.

The benefits of carpooling

• Savings: Sharing transport costs allows for considerable savings, for both drivers and passengers.
• Reduced CO2 emissions: By reducing the number of vehicles on the road, carpooling helps lower greenhouse gas emissions.
• Solidarity: Carpooling encourages solidarity between users and helps build connections between people.
• Reduced traffic: By sharing their vehicle, drivers help ease congestion and improve traffic flow on the roads.

The National Everyday Carpooling Plan

Faced with the rise in car journeys and the need to cut CO2 emissions, the French government launched the National Everyday Carpooling Plan. The goal is to triple the number of daily carpooled trips by 2027, from 900,000 to 3 million per day, notably through incentive measures for drivers and passengers.
