Return to the ridematching service main page.
While there is absolutely no obligation to rideshare when registering with this database, you may also choose to explore the ridematching service before you sign up by viewing the example graphics below.
- Select the "Your Company Only" menu option under Match Preferences on the Registration page, to match yourself with only Stanford commuters. To broaden the search beyond Stanford, select the "All Regional Matches" option.
- Increase your chances of finding ridematches by expanding your departure and/or destination radius. Adjust these values in the "Improve your MatchList!" section of the Match page, right below the map.
- The worksite location is designated as "Stanford" for all Stanford users. Additional worksite locations are not presently allowed. To find out where your potential rideshare partners commute to within Stanford's campus:
- Look up your rideshare partner's name on Stanford Who
- Contact your potential rideshare partners by sending them an email
- Click on the names in your ridematch list (on the Match page) to view additional information provided (We encourage users to indicate their work address or building in the 'Tell matches more about you' field of the Registration page.)
- For this ridematching system, the Oval has been chosen as the geographical location point for the "Stanford" worksite. Therefore, the "Destination" map of the Match page shows all (Stanford) ridematch indicators "stacked" on top of each other at that point, and the topmost indicator hides any others below it. For example, if you had 3 matches, the 3rd match would be at the top of the stack, hiding the 2nd below it, as well as the 1st at the bottom. View picture (GIF, 29 KB)
- Selecting the "Logoff" button will close the window
Signed up for the ridematching service, but decided that you're not interested? No problem. At the bottom of the Registration page, click the "Delete Record" button for immediate cancellation, and you're all done.
