Free Transport
From GiftEconomy
[edit] Legs
Walking is free and healthy. In Energy and Equity Ivan Illich noted that walking is about the same net speed as travelling in automobiles - if the time needed to earn the money to buy and run the car and road system are taken into account (even disregarding the effects of accidents!) the effective speed of car users is no faster than walking.
[edit] Bicycling
Illich recommended bike riding as a sweet spot of speed and expense, and of course it is also healthy. Charities such as http://Re-cycle.org are committed to providing free bicycles to those who can beenfit from them.
[edit] Motorised Transport
Most motorised vehicles are driven with free seats for most of the time. Some drivers are thoughtful enough to let strangers travel with them, whether organised in advance (such as through a Gift_Economy_Websites#Transport website free transport website), or on an ad hoc basis (as explained further at http://hitchwiki.org/).
Some poeple offer motorised transport on a 'give what you can' basis[1]
