BlaBlaCar is an online service with apps for iOS and Android that connects travelers and car owners to organize trips by mutual agreement with strangers, thus taking advantage of a single means of transport for several. This way you will save money and do your bit for the environment by polluting less. The service is very convenient and allows you to search for trips or propose your own, being the driver or co-driver and contacting interested parties with messages.
BlaBlaCar is a great opportunity to make short, medium or long distance trips inside or outside your country. For example, it will be very useful for commuting to work or for occasional trips without taking the train, plane or bus. The process is very simple, and the level of detail in the forms allows you to indicate day and time of travel, price of the trip and indicate if, for example, you allow the co-pilot to smoke, bring animals, listen to music, give conversation and available seats. Who knows if a friendship may arise from a trip. Another advantage is that by displaying search results, you will be able to choose the one that suits you best and contact the person who proposed it, as there are many users available and very varied trips. Finally, and after the trip, you have the possibility to indicate whether the experience was to your liking or not, so that other users know if the user is trustworthy. In this way, you can also benefit from the opinions of others.
No matter how much reluctance you have to travel with strangers, BlaBlaCar will remove any doubts, as it allows you to refine your search, to indicate very clearly all your conditions in the trips you propose and, with the help of messages, you can agree with the other person/s. In addition, the feedback system allows you to rate other users to create a climate of trust.
BlaBlaCar offers nothing new. For years, car sharing has become increasingly popular. This idea, very popular in the United States, is increasingly used in other countries because of the advantages it offers in terms of savings and helping the environment. In addition, it allows to create links with other people. Thus, the grace of BlaBlaCar is that it facilitates this practice to the maximum.
