her? she said yeah but the idea of taking a stranger inside your car sounds scary but some people do it because an unofficial system is set up for that. there are areas designated for morning pickup. drivers usually drop off passengers at fremont and mission streets or nearby downtown san francisco. to car pool on the bay bridge and i-80 there must be three or more people in the car. one commuter we spoke to said he plans on car pooling with a coworker -- coworker. >> it's the only option i could drive but he lives in carquinez. >> do you think you will pick up any more people on the way? is that something that people should try to do? >> it's more of what people should do but not that time of the morning. we have to leave at 4:30. there is not a lot of people come into work that early. >> reporter: according to local

websites encore pooling if you're a woman and concerned about safety and a male driver pulls up and uncomfortable it's perfectly acceptable if you want to wait for a female driver to car pool you when they show up. now another suggestion i saw online is when you get into a car pool to tell people that you want to actually snap a picture of them for safety reasons and usually people are understanding. now if you want to actually guarantee that you will get a ride and know who you are riding with there is a 511 ride share program and it matches you up with people you can meet with them beforehand. so that is also an option. reporting live from fremont janine de la vega ktvu channel 2 news. >> stay with us here at ktvu news for continuing coverage on our website ktvu.com we have a list of transportation alternatives in the event of a bart strike. time is 6:47. the man in charged of monitoring the oakland police department is criticizing the department. thomas fraser the court appointed compliance director
