Poly Rides

Poly Rides makes it easy to coordinate rides with other Cal Poly students.

Poly Rides makes it easy to coordinate rides with other Cal Poly students by providing a simple interface to offer rides, search for rides, coordinate rides, view mutual friends with drivers, and message other users.

Drivers can offer rides, specifying their departure and arrival addresses, date and time of departure, cost per seat, and number of seats available.

Passengers can enter a departure and arrival address and ideal date and time of departure. They will be given a list of rides available within 24 hours of their departure time, sorted by proximity to the desired route. Passengers can also see mutual friends with their potential drivers. Want to be dropped off along the way? No worries! Any rides in that time frame are displayed so you can easily see what rides are available, even if they are not going to your exact destination city!

Featuring Facebook integration, in-app messaging, and an advanced ride sorting algorithm, you can easily connect with other Cal Poly students to help decrease the number of cars on the road!

Inspired by the Cal Poly Ride Share Facebook group founded by Jayne Ellis.
