PETROL COSTS
- We rely on carpooling to get our members to and from event trip locations. Passengers will have to pay a contribution to petrol for the driver.
- The club policy is for passengers to contribute 2 parts passenger cost to 1 part driver cost (passenger : driver).
- eg. for a car with 3 passengers, 1 driver, and a $140 total petrol cost; the passengers each pay $40 and the driver pays $20. Ratio 2:2:2:1, (passenger 40 : passenger 40 : passenger 40 : driver 20).
