The idea of carpooling is certainly old, but it started to gain widespread appeal with the rise of mobile and high-bandwidth internet. It all began back in 2005 before Uber existed, but people wanted to cut down on their transport expenses. While this is very smart reasoning and all that, some people seem to have taken the thing a bit too literal.
This guy heard the words "carpooling," and basically jumped into his big white SUV and drove into the nearest pool. The result is the above photo. The people that had to witnesses this were probably laughing their asses off. Most certainly the person that did this had to be very drunk or high on something really good, so he must have felt a lot of remorse in the morning.
