PNOA Carpool Policy
At PNOA, we advocate for environmental protection and green travel, so we encourage everyone to carpool whenever possible for our activities. Below are the PNOA Carpool Fee Guidelines: / 我们 PNOA 倡导环保、绿色出行，所以每次活动都尽可能大家可以 carpool 一起走。以下是 PNOA 关于 Carpool 费用的指引：
1. Trips Within 500 km / 500 公里以内的行程
In terms of carpooling on PNOA trips within 500 km or less, the driver will be paid by passengers at the rate of $0.25/km per person if there is only 1 passenger, $0.20/km per person if there are 2 passengers, and $0.15/km per person if there are 3 or more passengers. / 对于 500 公里以内的 PNOA 活动 Carpool 拼车，如果只有 1 名乘客，司机将按每人 $0.25/公里收费；如果有 2 名乘客，将按每人 $0.20/公里收费；如果有 3 名或更多的乘客，将按每人 $0.15/公里收费。
2. Trips Exceeding 500 km / 500 公里以上的行程
In terms of carpooling on PNOA trips exceeding 500 km, it’s recommended that all passengers, apart from the vehicle owner, share the fuel costs. Additionally, the car owner should be reimbursed CAD $7 per 100 km to cover vehicle depreciation, including expenses like car washes, maintenance, and other related costs, which also helps save time on mileage calculation. / 对于 500 公里以上的 PNOA 活动 Carpool 拼车，建议所有乘客（车主除外）分担燃油费用；此外，车主应获得每 100 公里 CAD $7 的补偿，以弥补车辆折旧，包括洗车、维护和其他相关费用，这个方法也是为了节省里程计算时间。
3. Rough Road Surcharge / 崎岖路段附加费
An additional surcharge of $0.04/km per vehicle may be considered for trips that involve driving on rough or forest service roads. / 此外，对于涉及在崎岖/森林服务道路上行驶的行程，可能会考虑每辆车额外收取 $0.04/公里的附加费。
4. Shared Expenses and Incidents / 违章与损耗费用分摊
All carpooling participants, including the driver but excluding PNOA, may share evenly the cost of traffic violation tickets, repairing costs for vehicle damage occurring during the trip not covered by insurance, and the insurance deductible if covered. / 所有拼车参与者，包括司机（但不包括 PNOA），可平均分摊交通违规罚单费用、行程中发生的车辆损坏维修费用（保险可能不承保部分），以及保险承保时的免赔额。
