Whats the difference between carpooling, vanpooling, and ridesharing?
A carpool is simply two or more people agreeing to make a trip sharing one vehicle, often a regular car. A vanpool is basically a carpool of lots of people, usually seven or more. Because of the size of the group, vans are the most frequently used vehicles for vanpooling. See Vanpool FAQ for more information on the vanpool program.) Ridesharing is another term for two or more people traveling together in one vehicle. It can be used interchangeably with carpooling and can also include vanpooling.
