UF’s One Less Car Challenge
In meeting the challenge, we are asking the UF community to pledge to commute by an alternative to single-occupancy vehicle travel on One Less Car Day, Friday, October 23, and as often as possible throughout the fall semester.
Individual participants can sign up and choose a team by following the link below. Once you are registered, you will have our new and easy-to-use online tool to track your progress.
You will also be eligible for great prizes, and will receive a button indicating the mode of transportation you have pledged to take, which can be worn year round.
