How Many Passengers Can Ride In Your Car

After looking at this picture I start feeling quality and selfish driving alone. Are you taking other people for ride?

When I had my Vette, I could only fit me and another person...but somehow we managed to fit a total of 3 girls including myself...they'd just sit on each other's laps or one would squeeze in the middle part...and it was a long ride to the bar, but we found a way...ha ha...we even got pulled over by the cops a few times for that one. In the car I have now, I can fit about 5 people, 4 people comfortably [Druscilla34]
when I used to have sport car, always needed to take more than one person, but it was no room for more than one. Now I have big car and I am driving alone...I do have some infant car seating in case any of my friends are bringing a baby along. [polachicago]


Hello Pola, My Jeep Grand Cherokee Larado can maybe fit 2 in the front, 3 in the back, and 2 in the very back. But the very back doesn't have seatbelts, so I don't know if that would count. If so, 7 comfortably. Now I might be able to fit a half dozen on the luggage rack. But that's pushing it! I left a comment on the photo also! Peace, Totty [totty1969]
Totty, you are the best! great solution for todays economy...I am sure that you can take at least 12 on every trip....;) [polachicago]



Five people can ride in my car. Two in the front and three in the back. But there is rarely more than two of us in it. These days I don't use it so often though. [derek_a]
Oh yes, our dog used to love going in the car.. Always sticking his head out of the window :-) He's too old now, so we just drop him off at KC Pet Services if we go on long trips. [derek_a]


8 people including 2 of us at the front. usually just 2 of us using the car, and some Tools of the trade when going on the job. when giving a ride, I give someone a ride if he or she gives me a ride, other than that no. for as long as I work, there are only one or two occassions when someone gave me a ride, other than that I waited for the bus. So I think it's fair if I do the same to others. [LittleMel]
I can take 4 passengers total, as far as giving ride...hmmm...all people I know are working in different places....I do help my friends when they need ride to airport sometimes... [polachicago]



mine can set 5 if the are to big and then cargo space in the back, with decent cargo liners to handle pets or mess! Good for walmart and grocery shopping and picking people up at the airport. and going to take daughter in law to base to the commisary ever 2 weeks [Lakota12]
yup works out well as we have 4 vehicals [Lakota12]


Five people can ride in my car, however I have rode six in there before. I have bucket seats in the front so onlt two can ride in the front. [sunkissed]
sounds like good deal....:) [polachicago]


I can fit 5 people in my car. When I was a freshmen in high school, we had our parents take turns driving us to school. There was 7 of us all together. A couple of us always had to sit on someones lap. That was kind of fun since there were only two of us girls. :) [OURDEW]
yes, sounds like fun....time change...more and more people are driving alone... [polachicago]


Up to 5 people can ride in my car. I've had more than that, luckily kids, and they rode in the spacious cargo area in the back. [bestisyettocome]
looks like you are ready for carpool...:) [polachicago]


Hello polachicago! Six of us can ride up front in my vehicle, and I bet that I could stuff another 10 to 12 in the back, although they wouldn't be comfortable or safe, and I would probably earn a citation from the local constable if I was caught. Not to mention I always throw my climbing footwear and accessories, so that takes up space. [Transdisc]
...Transdisc...you are the best! [polachicago]


Besides me, four people can travel in my car. I could not see any picture on your discussion??? [dpk262006]
Yes, I can see the picture now...and now can understand your discussion.....but I can not drive with so many person....it looks unbelievable. [dpk262006]


6 people can fit inside my car.. [pauloahorro]
your car must be big.... [polachicago]


i think it's at most of five adult people my car can ride, of course including me. you haven't told me how many passengers you car can ride. [kineychen]
I can have 6 inside, with open roof and all standing, maybe about 10... [polachicago]


Not right now, maybe later. Four passengers can ride in my car. I am sure that more people can if they are all a little bit skinny. [Lydia1901]
..OK, we can put them on diet... [polachicago]


I don't carpool- there is no one in my area that works this way- I would love to if I could- save on gas! And mileage of my vehicle- My car will ride 5- but not comfortably- It's a small 4 door- We ride 4 with comfort- Good thing my family only has 3- cuz we take a lot of stuff places- [KrisNY]
I only drive with my dogs in my car...... [polachicago]


It depends on which car, as I'm a car enthusiast and used to own a car dealership, I've got quite a fleet. My household has sports cars, SUVs, trucks, classic automobiles, and passenger cars. I believe I can fit 7-8 people comfortably in my Tahoe. By the way - that pic is simply crazy! [lazywalt99]
I am glad you like that picture... [polachicago]


That Picture reminds me of an Ad in Indian TVs a few years back . That was for some Glue Stick !! . In India I have seen people being packed in Cars or Trucks / Buses.That might be because of Fewer Transport and more people.But It does not happen everywhere .I think it is prevalent more in Smaller Towns and Villages. But the Picture you have shown here takes the icing on Cake.I would shudder at the thought of such a Ride !! [ptrikha1]

i have a sports card and there are four seats total but the back seats are very crowed but my parents sit in the back there all the time just so we can get around and save on gas [adidas7878]
you can alwats pack people in your trunk...ha,ha [polachicago]


hi, I dont know how maximum number of people my car can hold... I guess it depends in which country I take my car!!! I prefer to load only 5 passengers!! [vhmehta]
you can always pack your car with extra people....:))) [polachicago]


i can fit 5 in my car but i like a mx. of 4 ppl i dnt mind driving ppl places as long as im on the way [xdollface8]

My minivan is supposed to hold up to 7 people, but I rarely have even that many in the car, even counting the dog. [KATRINKA]
counting my dogs, I can get 7 too.... [polachicago]


I am sorry to say that I have no car to carry any passengers, but I have a 26-inch black bike that can carry one person. I would like to have one car of my own some day to use it as a taxi-cab for investment and of course for more passengers as always. [williamjisir]
Hello friend. I can see that cars are your basic in America when you go to work in a faraway place. I guess that maybe buses are not so common in your area? Here in Chinese cities, big or small, there are many buses every fifteen minutes. It is very convenient to have a bus. [williamjisir]


Right now I have a Dodge Neon and my hubby, daughter, shihtzu, and I all fit in there just fine! The only problem though is that if we were going to go away for a weekend or a few days their wouldn't be enough room for all of us and our stuff! PurpleTeddyBear. [PurpleTeddyBear]
I can imagine, your car is really small for long trip, I was renting dodge few times, but in city looks to be big enough... [polachicago]


Five people can ride in my car. Two up front and three in the back. [chris57455]
can you fit some people in your trunk? or have 6 skinny people in your car? I am not asking about legal driving.....I can fit 10 skinny people in my car and drive....it wouldn't be legal, but I can..... [polachicago]


hi pola,my car can carry 5 passengers,but it's small and i think is not very confortable ride 5 passengers on this car.So i usually drive alone or with up to a person. i prefer ride my motorcycle...alone.it's so amazing and it makes me feel free!and it's also faster than car.bye [andre1983]
i want to give you an advice...the right car for you is the new mini!!it's cool and...mini [andre1983]


My car is a very small car.its a maruthi deluxe car.it can only hold a maximum of five persons.But in cases you can also manage six or seven but then it would be very tight [varunkrishna007]
5 is a lot anyway......:) [polachicago]


We can accommodate 4 only in our family car. So if there is a stranger i can always ask my kids to sit with me and the other one at the back to accommodate them in a possible way. Just to help [ayou82]
As long as your family is in fitting in... [polachicago]
