Carpool benefits and safety tips
Why sharing rides in Dhaka and across Bangladesh makes sense, and how to do it safely. কারপুলের উপকারিতা ও নিরাপত্তা।
Benefits of carpooling
Save money
Split fuel, toll and parking costs. A daily Uttara–Motijheel commute can cost half as much when shared.
Less traffic and pollution
Every shared car or bike means fewer vehicles on Dhaka's roads and cleaner air.
Save time
Find someone already going your way at the same time instead of waiting for transport.
Meet your community
Ride with classmates, colleagues and neighbours from your own area.
How to share rides safely
Approval before contact
Phone numbers and chat unlock only after the poster approves a rider on Path_Mil.
Chat inside the app
Use private in-app chat so you don't have to share personal numbers early.
Share live location
Approved partners can see each other's live location on the ride page.
Meet in public places
Pick up at a known landmark, and tell a friend or family member your route.
Check the details
Confirm the vehicle, time and fare before the trip. Cancel if anything feels wrong.
