I commute 15 minutes each way, adding up to what, five days per year or so? But in the evening during the school year, add another 30 minutes to that--15 extra minutes to my son's school and back. If I didn't have him, I would probably carpool or even ride my bike in decent weather.

For about six months I did carpool with a friend in the neighborhood--however, he had to go with me all the way to school after work and it got to be too much of a hassle trying to coordinate our after-work schedules as he has a side business and often we were rushing to get him home on time for an appointment. Too bad, I enjoyed the company and we both felt better about using 50% less fuel.
