subject: Advice On Positives Of Car Pooling If You Work In London [print this page] Car pooling is the process of sharing an employee's car by going in pairs with another colleague who travels the same way to work and splitting the cost of fuel between the passengers with some even opting to share the cost of the car too.
Not only will car pooling help to save the planet, but say you work in London then it could help you to cut down on travel expenses. What better reason to get into a car pool scheme?
Need to know more? Well, here are some more benefits, thanks to www.officebroker.com.
1) Some authorities and governments can offer incentives to car poolers. You could be able to get hold of a car to drive to your offices with fellow colleagues and relieve pressure on the London transport system. There may not be a passenger in the car with you the entire time as if you pick up your car pooling friend on the way which means you can save money without hardly trying at all. This makes it win-win scenario for both driver and passenger!
2) Other ways that you can kick off your car pooling include searching the internet for London car pooling sites which is free to use and could turn out a match instantly without having to call up the London paper to advertise. If your London office seems keen to join in on the scheme it may be of use to chat to your management staff who might wish to add cash bonuses for staff wishing to share thus securing the backing of your company.
3) When getting your car share going you'll have to decide how you're actually going to get to work and which route to London is best in order to collect your passenger so you're not driving unreasonable amounts more. This is important, as cutting back on fuel is the goal so choose the most direct path on a map beforehand and check the right roads to take before you set off designating a clear pickup point with your car buddy.
4) When relocating our office a few years ago to a London serviced office that was found on www.officebroker.com the powers that be thought that it was a great chance to start a company-wide scheme of car pooling so that colleagues can share driving responsibilities. Workers that took to the scheme managed to save money that would otherwise have gone towards the cost of their London commute had the car sharing idea not been brought in - the key benefit being that colleagues get to know one another better.
5) If you're keen to take your car pooling to the next level and you have a lengthy commute to your place of London you may even consider allowing tag along passengers and they would pay only for the distance they have covered. Feeling safe in your vehicle is the most important thing and you should treat strangers with the same caution you would normally - why not take a colleague along with you for support when you pick up your new car share buddy for the first time.
So if you want to make an impact on the environment and you'd like to pocket a bit of extra petrol money as well as helping your colleagues get to work safely then car pooling to London might well be the solution for you!
