Electronic Hitch Hiking

Called open-carpooling, the idea is to find ways to locate drives willing to give a lift to other people. I think this is a great idea, altho it does bring up concern of crazies.. but I guess having a passengers credit history etc should help.. The best thing, is that this is to use existing infrastructure, with just an added communications system (that most likely could function as a phone app); devolped by the Fraunhofer Institute for Open Communication Systems
