| SMS for CarPoolers in Mumbai |
|
Typically you goto a carpool classified website and hook with other drivers. However, it is common to stay back at work late evenings. Essentialy your return times are never fixed. But you still want to carpool, how can you do it ?
Mumbai based, MESN(Mumbai Environmental and Social Network) came up with the idea to hook carpool drivers and ride seekers on the go. Ride Seekers and Ride Givers can register and try to hook up by means of SMS or Web based scheduling minutes before both decide to ride back home.
Ride givers earn 25 fuel points for every person picked up and they can redeem their points in HPCL fuel outlets. Ride Seekers should BUY a pre-paid account which gets debited the moment they confirm they want a ride by means of SMS. Isn’t it a really cool idea for hard working Mumbaikars ? |
