Do you drive regularly
to work? If you live in a major town or city there is a good chance you know
somebody who regularly drives a similar route to yours. Although you may not
have considered carpooling as an option it has many benefits both from an environmental
perspective and a financial one. Leaving your car at home, even some of the
time, could positively impact your Maine
car insurance premiums in addition to offering a saving on fuel
costs.
The benefits of
carpooling include:
- Environmental benefits from reduced number of vehicles on the road
- Lower or shared fuel costs
- Less wear and tear on your car which may mean lower maintenance costs
- Lower mileage on your car potentially leading to decreased insurance premiums
- A less stressful daily commute – sharing the driving means having someone to chat to while you are stuck in traffic
