In France, there was an attempt at something close to this concept[0].
Despite having thousands of people doing my same commute, I have never been able to to get anyone to drive me to/from work.

- baisq 4y agoThat works in Spain and it's more or less the same. Of course, Spain is a much poorer country, so it makes more sense to share a vehicle there.
- blablacar_daily 4y agoHey, BlaBlaCar Daily engineer here. This still is an attempt we are running in France, now with thousands of trips happening every day. When did you use it? Perhaps if you give it another try you may find someone this time. :) I also would love to hear your feedback. What do you think we should do to improve the experience of drivers and passengers, and to get more people to share their commute? Thanks!
- Raed667 4y agoThanks for the response. Glad to see it's still running. For me it was just the lack of available drivers. I put my commute which is fairly common around here, yet for the many weeks I didn't find a match.
- blablacar_daily 4y agoYeah, that's the biggest challenge, kickstarting specific regions. Oftentimes at first there are drivers but no passengers or vice-versa. What you can do is set your commute and leave the app installed in the background. Others can send requests to you once they join or the app can eventually remind you that there are others along your route.
