Tickengo

edit

Tickengo is an online and mobile app service that connects thrifty ride seekers with drivers’s empty car seats. Passengers post ride requests to the Tickengo community for scheduled rides to the airport or anywhere. Tickengo doesn’t hire drivers, but 10,000 volunteer drivers have registered in 959 cities. The goal is fill empty seats in cars on the road, not create new commercial transportation. Reduce congestion and pollution, legally and tax-free.

Why is Tickengo legal? See this Forbes article.
