In trying to solve the energy and transportation problems of America I have come up with a dynamic rideshare system. This system consists of a centralized computer that knows the locations and destination of each vehicle and individual that participates. It then routes the vehicles to pick up and drop off passengers in the most efficient path with a transfer or two to be expected by the riders. The vehicles would be privately owned with a GPS guidance system connected with a cell nework for routing. My question is, would you ride it and does it make sense?

I would ride the minibus. I would love it if I could walk out my door, hit a button, and have someone pick me up and take me right where I need to go, all for cheaper than driving myself.

I don't want to ride with anyone else. I want to drive fast and I like a big motor.
I don't think high gas prices are a problem and I'm not alone. Solve that.

Sure, I used to ride the short, little yellow school bus every day during my 18 years of elementary school.

That's a good idea! The US Government is Universally blamed for excess [greenhouse] gasses, but I now see that it's the irresponsible idiots who brag about 'burning the gas in a big car'. e.g. the posting above me.

Start up costs might be prohibitive. It would not actually be saving money if it increased the tax load on everyone.
