Carpooling does not have to be a stressful experience. Taking the time to prepare will make the experience better for everyone. It is important to set rules and expectations ahead of time. The pick-up times, drop-off times, meeting spots, responsibilities, and schedules are something that everyone has to know. You should also make sure that everyone is following the safety guidelines. Make sure that your vehicle has had an inspection and has received all of the basic maintenance that it needs.
One of the keys to making sure that a carpool runs smoothly is to pick everyone up on time. Additionally, there should be a plan in place just in case someone is unable to make it. Make sure that check in regularly to see if everyone is comfortable with the carpool arrangements. Ask them if any improvements need to be made.
