Claudine Batarse | Bradley Higgins | Kevin Yang | Bert Yee

INTRODUCTION

Parking on UCSD campus is

difficult for students

Convenient “S” spots are far

and few in between

Carpooling can alleviate the

stress of parking

CARPOOLDIFFICULTIES

CURRENT SITUATION

CURRENT SITUATION

“NO. hard to find

someone in my

neighborhood “

“Carpool is appealing only if there were actually

enough parking spots on campus.”

“not with the pass since the criteria is a

bit difficult to fulfill. It is pretty difficult to

have 3 people with similar schedules

and it has to be reapplied for every

quarter”

“Yes, i live in a house with no car drives

except for me. So when i go to school i

usually carpool already. “

“Maybe. Depending on the

price and availability of

parking.”

“Yes because parking is such a pain.”

“Yes it would be, but only if

there are a good chunk of

spots that are close to

campus as I know S spots are

quite limited near campus

and abundant in areas that

are further away like the

regent parking lot. “

“Yes, save on gas and money and time.”“It's difficult to find people

with the same schedule.

And speaking from

experience, splitting gas, etc.

is also a pain.”

“Yes, because I

would have access

to parking spots

specifically reserved

for carpool pass

holders, rather than

having to fight with

everyone else for a

parking spot. “

“Yes, because buses can only

do so much during rush hour”

“No, it feels a bit awkward riding with strangers.”

PROMOTION

PEOPLE ONLY USE IT WHEN

THEY KNOW IT

“Online research”

“From a friend who

does use carpool

services. “
