Carpooling (NuRide)

NuRide is a free online carpooling/ridesharing site, allowing you to find a carpool/rideshare for:

  • daily commuting
  • one-time rideshares
  • regular (but not daily) commuting

Who can use it?

  • You will register using your Ramapo email account. You can not register using a generic account (e.g. gmail, hotmail, etc.)
  • Any NuRider can search for or post rides that can be seen by any other NuRider – that is, you could find a ride (or be contacted by) a non-Ramapo user. However, with Ramapo as your starting (or ending) point you are likely to only locate Ramapo NuRiders.
  • If you are searching for a commuting carpool, bear in mind that you could ride with different people in the morning and evening – that is, have two different carpools.

Why carpool?

Some reasons to consider carpooling include:

  1. save $ on gas and tolls
  2. easier to find parking on campus
  3. reduce your carbon footprint
  4. reduce Ramapo’s carbon footprint
  5. have some company while you travel!
  6. Get free stuff! For each completed ride with feedback submitted, you will earn points for vouchers/discounts at area retailers.

Safety

  1. Any time you send a message to a NuRider, they will be able to see your email address in order to reply to you.
  2. Users provide feedback about each other. If you don’t show up, you will get negative feedback!
  3. You are not obligated to share a ride with anyone. You might want to meet your potential ridesharer ahead of time in the cafeteria if you don’t know them.
  4. NuRide enables you to set up ‘buddy lists’ to facilitate carpooling among a more restricted pool than the entire NuRide community.
  5. Please refer to the NuRide member agreement for more information and tips.
