What do you understand by the term Carpooling?

Long Answer

Solution

Carpooling is the practice of sharing a car journey among two or more people travelling the same route, such as coworkers, students, or neighbors, so that multiple passengers ride in a single vehicle rather than each driving separately. This arrangement reduces the total number of cars on the road. By consolidating trips, carpooling lowers fuel consumption and vehicle operating costs, cuts vehicular emissions and traffic congestion, reduces road wear, and can save time and money while offering social and stress‑reduction benefits during commutes.
