Travel in company, save money and reduce pollution, with Bringme Social Carpooling you can!
Now here we are, it's time to leave for a well-deserved one holiday. One in three Italians is packing their bags in anticipation of next weekend when the cities will empty in favor of tourist resorts. For years now we have been used to organizing our holidays by keeping an eye on the low cost offers that airlines and tour operators offer us in search of the unmissable offer. But for those who have lost the offer, the travel by car, perhaps towards a city of art rather than a mountain resort or a beach on the splendid Mediterranean coasts.
Today, even those who choose a car for their travels have the opportunity to "travel low cost" saving up to 80% the cost of fuel, motorway toll booths and parking. As? It's simple… just rediscover old habits which, in this case, thanks to the internet become simpler and safer.
I'm talking about the Carpooling or simply Hitchhiking. But let's forget the image of the traveler on the roadside with his thumb up, in 2012 hitchhiking is done online . Finding a travel companion with whom to share the journey, the costs and why not establish a new friendship has now become a habit for thousands of motorists and is spreading rapidly.
Bringme Social Carpooling is the Italian portal which allows you to enter and consult, free of charge, advertisements in relation to our car trips, whether they are commuting or occasional. To provide an order of magnitude to date on Bringme there are more 4200 departing journeys in the next four weeks and there are about 15.000 parking spaces waiting to be busy.
- ads can be entered in an extremely detailed manner indicating: departure, arrival, dates and times, cars for smokers or not, transport of pets rather than luggage, etc. etc. Once you have placed the ad, you just have to wait for one of the thousands of Bringme subscribers and visitors accept your travel and send you the contact details through which to get in touch.
Among the features of Bringme Social Carpooling there is also the possibility to link your trip to one of the many concerts, musical and sporting events or events published in the thematic areas: sports and events. In this way you can share, with new friends, not only the journey but even your passions.
Let's try now to calculate your savings obtainable assuming you share the car with two passengers for a 60 km round trip, traveled daily to go to work. Assuming that we work 250 days a year and use a medium-sized car that travels 15 km with a liter, we get a annual savings of around 1200 euros! It seems incredible but only by counting the cost of fuel can we afford a nice vacation in the Red Sea.
Obviously we can also consider any parking costs and motorway toll booths, further increasing savings and let's not forget that our two passengers, by giving up using their own car, will have reduced polluting emissions of about 3900 Kg of CO2. All that remains is to try this economical and ecological solution and see the management costs of our cars significantly reduced.
