Ridesharing is a broad term and can even include instances when family members share rides. Generally, however, ridesharing is associated with sharing a trip to work. In the 21st century, ridesharing has gotten a makeover, as social media, smartphones, apps, and online services link people in need of a ride with people offering one. This hybrid service has been referred to as real-time ridesharing, dynamic ridesharing, dynamic carpooling, instant ridesharing, and novo ridesharing.1
