Helping You Out in The Times of Odd-Even | Here's 6 Efficient Ways to Carpool
The mind-numbing frustration that is Delhi's traffic is no secret. More than just the everyday traffic bottlenecks, Delhi faces a more severe and persistent problem - the pollution. Luckily for us, there is a way to stall the impending doom which also leaves our pockets feeling a little heavier - carpooling. Here's how you can do this!
1. BlaBlaCar
You signup via Facebook and get to choose your co-travellers to suit your comfort level. You have the added advantage of letting people know if you want a chatty ride or would rather silently watch Delhi pass by your window screen. You can indicate whether you’re a ‘Bla’, ‘BlaBla’ or a ‘BlaBlaBla’!
Prices are fixed and cannot exceed a specified ceiling placed by BlaBlaCar. BlaBlaCar also has a Ladies Only feature, wherein all passengers in the carpool and the driver are all women.

Others interested in that carpool will be notified. You can contact your potential co-passenger via email or call them. The PoolMyRide app also allows you to chat with potential co-passengers and therefore, helps you choose the perfect travel partner.
