STEP  4.  Your  final  listing  will  look  like  this.  Review  your  posting  to  ensure  accuracy.  You  are  responsible  for  what  it  states.  

 

     

STEP  5.  Don’t  forget  to  delete  your  post  once  a  ride  share  has  been  made.  You  do  this  by  selecting  “Edit”  next  to  your  post,  and  select  “Delete”  from  the  bottom.  

   

Please  keep  these  Ride  Share  Etiquette  points  in  mind  while  traveling.    

• Be  on  time.  Decide  how  long  the  driver  is  expected  to  wait  for  passengers  before  leaving.  • Be  respectful  of  the  driver’s  vehicle.  Agree  beforehand  on  whether  it  is  OK  to  smoke,  eat  or  drink  in  the  

vehicle.  Never  leave  trash  in  the  vehicle.  As  a  driver,  keep  your  vehicle  clean  and  tidy.  • If  you  are  driving,  drive  carefully  and  obey  all  traffic  laws.  Speeding  and  aggressive  driving  may  make  

riders  feel  unsafe.  Make  sure  all  passengers  are  wearing  their  seat  belts.  • Be  mindful  of  anything  that  might  bother  other  riders/drivers.  For  example,  excessive  talking  might  

distract  the  driver  or  bother  people  who  prefer  quiet.  Talking  on  a  mobile  phone  may  also  disturb  some  people,  so  make  sure  it’s  OK  with  everyone  first.  

• Clarify  in  advance  the  amount  of  luggage  you  will  be  bringing  to  ensure  there  is  room.  • Try  to  avoid  requesting  changes  to  the  schedule  and  follow  through  on  your  commitments.  This  will  

create  trust  and  show  respect  to  your  fellow  ride  sharers.  Don’t  make  unexpected  stops  for  errands  unless  it  is  agreed  upon  by  all  ride  share  members.  

• Be  considerate  of  passengers  when  listening  to  music,  news  or  talk  radio.  • Avoid  wearing  products  with  strong  scents.  Strong  perfumes,  colognes  or  hair  products  may  be  

irritating  to  others  in  the  car.
