More about the Lincolnshire Car share website

ARE you feeling the pinch at the pumps? Are you looking for a new way to cut the cost of motoring?

We've set up Lincolnshire Car Share on our website. It's a free message board shared with our sister newspapers across the county.

People can use it to post details of their journeys and find others making similar trips.

It could be for the daily commute to work, the school run, a weekly trip to market or even hospital visits.

Car sharing helps you save money and cuts the number of cars on the road – so it's good for your pocket and good for the planet.

Why car share?
* Running a car is becoming more and more costly – by sharing journeys with someone else you can instantly halve your fuel costs.
* Car sharing cuts the number of cars on the roads – easing congestion and reducing the demand for parking spaces.
* It can be a great way to meet new friends and take the stress out of motoring.
* Car sharing is an easy way to do your bit for the environment and help cut exhaust emissions.

Car sharing tips
* Be punctual and make sure you stick to your route and pickup times
* Set up a cost sharing arrangement from the start – if you are not sharing the driving equally make sure you are clear about how costs will be shared
* Swap phone numbers and make sure you notify your fellow car sharers if you are ill or not able to make the pickup
* Drive carefully and keep the car clean and in good condition
* Give it time to work – it might take a few weeks to settle into a pattern but many car sharers find they enjoy the experience

Safety precautions
* Try to meet anyone you might share a car with in a public place first before making a firm commitment to travel together.
* Don't reveal too much personal information up front.
* Check each others driving licences, MOT certificates and insurance documents
* Swap emergency contact numbers in case you are in an accident
* Set ground rules about eating, drinking, the radio, smoking etc
* Use common sense and trust your instincts
