In an effort to promote "car-free" and "car-less" lifestyles in Sacramento, I would like to encourage everyone to join in pestering Zipcar/Flexcar (two carsharing companies who recently merged) to bring their business to Sacramento before I have to start one myself!
Having a carsharing company in our community allows people to own fewer cars, if any at all, through a system where they provide a range of vehicles located in public parking spaces. You get a yearly membership, reserve a car for an hour or up to a day, and don't have to pay the cost of having your own vehicle.
Contact Zipcar/Flexcar at:
Email: info@zipcar.com
Phone: 866.4ZIPCAR (866.494.7227)
Tell them you want carsharing in Sacramento, and that there are public agencies and many individuals who would support it. Even a smaller-scale project would work!
In the meantime, check out Craigslist for ridesharing options

Sacramento Region 511 has ridesharing information, current traffic info, and a Commuter Club that is a good resource for those looking for relief from gas prices and freeway congestion. Visit www.sacregion511.org or call 511.
