The purpose of car sharing is to encourage and enable more efficient travel and transport by helping individuals to find travel companions and offering them a choice of more sustainable travel modes. Car sharing saves you money on the costs of running your car, buying fuel and parking whilst reducing pollution and congestion.
Driving can be quite stressful, both mentally and physically, although we don't often realise it. Car sharing from time to time can give you a break from that stress. Being a passenger means you can do things like read the paper or a book or do some work.

liftshare is a social enterprise. It was set up in 1997 with the initial aim of making more efficient use of the millions of empty car seats on UK roads by encouraging and enabling more people to share their car journeys. www.liftshare.org/
