Overview

Zigzag car is a carpool and ride-share app that connects drivers and passengers. Drivers post the date and time of their road trip intercity or intracity, and riders sign up for a seat. Riders are able to get to their destination for a price that is typically affordable and value for money. At the same time, the cost of a driver’s trip (gas, tolls, etc.) is essentially paid for. In fact a driver can actually make a profit for some trips with a fully booked car. Zigzag car is a carpooling app that allows passengers to buy a seat in a driver’s personal vehicle for any distance trip inside city or between cities. While the cost of a driver’s trip is offset by payment from the rider(s), an otherwise empty car is filled with passengers who need to get to the same destination as the driver. Our concept is simple: turn empty car seats into a cost-effective, eco-friendly, and fun mode of transportation.
