Our societies (worldwide) seem to be addicted to the drug of driving alone, and this jams up our roadways, especially at peak.
 
Most people understand the broad range of benefits we would all gain if we could get off this drug and restore free flowing traffic!
 
Many pilot projects have been tried, and have failed, to reduce the traffic.
 
The Ridesharing Institute wants to change all this.
 
We want to (figuratively) check everyone into rehab and find out how to wean us off the drug or reduce how much we use it.
 
Just like rehab, we talk about "interventions", meaning combinations of strategies that together might help reduce the traffic, without incurring massive cost.
 
For those who drive alone to work every day, if you rode to work as a passenger (in a car, van, or bus) just one day a week, there would be 20% less traffic during peak - enough to get rid of the worst of the congestion.
 
Welcome, and please join with us to help solve the riddle.
