The company I am proposing to start is a ride-share app for the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. Many students are looking for ways to get home or to other destinations around the weekends and breaks. There are many different options to get to those destinations like buses, planes, your own car, having your parents pick you up, etc. I want to introduce a way of traveling that is superior to all those others forms of transportation in several ways.
That form of transportation is ride-sharing. Ride-sharing is the concept of one person offering rides to and from where they are going, to as many people as they please. This means the drivers will neither have to embark on the potentially long drive by themselves, nor will they have to carry the monetary burden all by themselves. The riders will be able to travel for a very cheap price and are able to avoid possible dangers related to other forms of transportation like busses. The idea behind my company proposal is to fill the need of students and to make this form of transportation more available to all students on campus, while reducing the risks that come with the original form of ride sharing
