TreadShare

About this app

TreadShare is a carpooling app that links drivers and passengers so they can share rides and the cost of the drive. The goal here is to reduce the number of cars on the road, save money, connect like-minded travelers across Colorado, and help protect the environment. TreadShare is available anywhere in the state and anytime people are on the road; come see what rides are available or post your own!

Carpooling with TreadShare is a cost-sharing arrangement organized through the app, and not a commercial activity for drivers.

November 2022 release - new features include:
• Price scaling: drivers now have some flexibility on the price of their drives and can make it close to free;
• Multi-routes: drivers can add stops along the way so that passengers only pay for the portion of the route they need.

Ratings and reviews

As someone who tries to live as car-free as possible, this app is a great tool for finding my way to the mountains from the Denver area. I've only used it a couple of times so far, but I've been able to successfully find a ride and carpool with a good driver each time. This app is a good option considering the lack of frequent transit service from the state.

This is my second ski season using this app. I can't speak highly enough of it. The more vehicles we can get off the road, the better. One of the things that I really like is that the service fee is reasonable. Today, my passengers paid $13 and $11 oof that came to me directly. It usually pays for my gas and some on the mountain food which is good enough for me. An option to use a map to select start and end point would be nice. I couldn't select the park and ride I wanted.

It took them 5 days to pay me and they didn't even pay me the full amount! I didn't feel very safe using this app! Anyone can hop in your car and you are out in the mountains and away from people. You have no safe exit if needed like flagging someone for help or driving to a police station. Stranger danger for sure! Similar apps that have a stranger give you a ride have a direct link to 911 for safety.
