The alternative to carpooling 2c3o1s

Carpooling is a modern-day practice that experiences peaks in activity on strike days. More and more French people are opting for this alternative to avoid difficulties in transport. Of course, traffic jams are always a concern, but it is still more comfortable sitting in a car than standing in a crowded train of exhausted and angry people.

Among the most effective applications are of course BlaBlaCar, which is a pioneer in the sector, but other services also allow everyone to “carpool”.

This is the case for Klaxit (formerly WayzUp). The concept remains the same, instead of taking the classic transport, you just have to draw your smartphone to find a driver who goes in the same direction as you. Moreover, for Ile-de- residents, holders of a Navigo can use it via these applications at no extra cost.
