Daft thing is a colleague of mine drove past my street but I'm not allowed to car share but I was on a solo bus with people standing. Mind all but one person was wearing a mask.
Is it a company policy that you're not allowed to carshare, because according to the government guidance you're allowed to
Car sharing
It is difficult to socially distance during car journeys. You should avoid sharing a car with someone from outside your household or your support bubble unless you can practise social distancing. You can reduce the risk of transmission by:
- opening windows for ventilation
- travelling side by side or behind other people, rather than facing them, where seating arrangements allow
- facing away from each other
- considering seating arrangements to maximise distance between people in the vehicle
- cleaning your car between journeys using standard cleaning products - make sure you clean door handles and other areas that people may touch
- asking the driver and passengers to wear a face covering
Assuming you both wear a face covering there shouldn't really be an issue, and if you have the windows open, you're probably better off than being on a bus since everyone seems to close the windows still!
