Rideshare Week is HERE!

Commuters using public transit and dibs carpools and vanpools Oct. 18-22 can net smart travelers a $50 Amazon gift card or an Apple Air Pods Max.

Rideshare Week is an annual event across the United States that invites commuters to explore other ways of getting to work. Commuters can enter to win by creating an account at dibsmyway.com (or the dibs Commute Tracker app) and record a carpool, vanpool or public transit trip during Oct. 18-22.

Nine new registrations will be selected from Merced, San Joaquin and Stanislaus counties. That’s 27 total gift cards up for grabs. In addition, one lucky trip logger will be selected from each county to win Apple AirPods Max.

Using smart travel methods makes it easier to save money, helps save the environment and reduces traffic. Find out more about how dibs can help at dibsmyway.com/rideshareweek.

Any person 18 or older who works or lives in San Joaquin, Stanislaus, or Merced counties is eligible to win. Trip logging will be done via dibsmyway.com or through the Commute Tracker app. Only new members are eligible for Amazon gift card prizes.

Rideshare Week as an annual event to promote alternative methods of transportation. When commuters drive alone to their destination, it increases air pollution, congestion, and negatively impacts physical and mental health. Rideshare Week invites commuters to try something new and transit organizations to offer incentives to commuters for sharing their ride.
