Dear Rideshare Friend,

Problems, Problems, Problems. Well, I’m sure you’ve all heard by now that LA was ranked number one in traffic congestion. And unfortunately, gas prices are at an all time high. LA commuters are facing some of the toughest problems in a long time, but we all know the solution. So let’s roll up our sleeves and help our fellow commuters get out of this jam!

The nice folks at Metro and our fine Rideshare Sponsors have everything ready to help you run an amazing Rideshare Week campaign. This year’s theme focuses on LA’s biggest problem – traffic, and the best solution – ridesharing! It’s all about “opposites.” Problem/Solution. Stop/Go. Dirty/Clean. Pain/Pleasure. Then/Now.

Rideshare Week is October 6-10 and when your employees pledge to share the ride they could win one of dozens of valuable prizes. Even you have the chance to win a great prize by reporting your success promoting Rideshare Week.

Thank you for all you do to help cut traffic and improve our air quality.

I’ll be seein’ ya’ in the rideshare lane!

Huell Howser
