NuRide, the Frequent-Riders Program for Commuters and Drivers Everywhere

Car-pooling is so 1970s, whereas ride-sharing is the truly susty way to go to reduce global warming, traffic congestion and energy consumption. NuRide is the nation’s first ride network that rewards people for sharing rides. The backbone is an online ridesharing community where riders can find friends and neighbors going their way, share a ride whenever they like, and earn rewards from local and national sponsors.

The Impact — Stress, poor health, less disposable income and reduced consumer spending

According to the Surface Transportation Policy Partnership many American households spend more on transportation than education, health care and food COMBINED! This is a sobering fact considering all of the focus on the skyrocketing cost of health care and education. As energy prices continue to rise the increased cost of driving further impacts spending, which means people tend to eat out less often, shop less often, go out less often and have higher stress levels, impacting their health and well-being.

The NuRide Mission — “The Best Way to Get Around on the Ground”

NuRide’s mission is to become “the best way to get around on the ground”. The “best way” is the one that benefits the individual, the economy and our environment in a balanced approach. The first step along this path is to begin tapping into the immense unused seat capacity that resides in the 1.1 billion car trips that take place every day by giving individuals the tools and incentives necessary to share rides and reduce the environmental and economic impact of driving alone. The savings realized from ridesharing, combined with rewards and incentives provided by participating sponsors, put more money into the pockets of consumers, which benefits the individual, sponsors and the overall economy.
