Every week, we bring you an app that\u2019ll make your life easier. This week, we\u2019re going to help you get around the country for less with Liftshare.<\/p>\n
Liftshare is basically Uber for car-sharing, with people offering lifts to various locations in the UK. Enter a destination and Liftshare will show you drivers heading that way, along with how much they want for petrol.<\/p>\n
You can also register as a driver and offer lifts to other people if you fancy saving a bit of money on your journey.<\/p>\n
Booking a lift with someone you don\u2019t know could be quite scary, but Liftshare lets you get in touch with your selected lift giver so you can check a) they aren\u2019t weird and b) you aren\u2019t going to get into any heated arguments on your journey. It\u2019s more or less like booking a train journey, with slightly more background checks.<\/p>\n
The savings. According to Liftshare\u2019s app description page, you can get a trip to London for less than \u00a315. While that\u2019s obviously a best case scenario, a lot of the trips we\u2019ve seen cost considerably less than public transport.<\/p>\n
Oh, and the inclusion of user reviews means that any dangerous drivers\/bad company should be rooted out fairly quickly.<\/p>\n
Finding lifts around or between major cities is easy enough, but you\u2019ll struggle if you\u2019re travelling – or live – off the beaten track.<\/p>\n
And, of course, there\u2019s always the possibility that you\u2019ll have to spend a couple of hours with someone you hate and pay for the privilege.<\/p>\n
