Rule of Thumb (pt 2)

I posted recently about plans in the village to set up hitchhiking points for people without access to cars or who simply wanted to travel greener.
And, via the Total Politics Local Government Blog, I got sent a link to a similar though much more organised scheme in Washington State.
Thank you Robino for the tip.
We should think about importing this idea; simple, cheap, community-orientated and it should also encourage people to feel a bit safer about their environment by confronting the perception that the worst is happening.
