The Danish Ministry of Energy initiated an experiment in carpooling in a Danish suburb in Jutland. The aim was to investigate the attitude of car owners to the idea of sharing cars when travelling from their homes to their places of work. The conclusion drawn was, that a centrally coordinated car pooling system would not have any significant effect with regard to reducing traffic between suburbs and larger towns. The idea of personal freedom to choose when to use their cars showed itself to be of great importance to car owners. Some were bound by unconventional working times and no-one liked to experience limits to flexibility. Yet, in America similiar experiments took place from the seventies to the nineties and the results were definitely positive. The authors claim that this was because the period of experimentation was longer, that experiments were many and covered a wide variety of alternative methods of carpooling. (AB).
