carpool passenger
Shared ride occupant
A carpool passenger is someone who rides in a shared vehicle but isn't driving.
The term appears most often in contexts involving HOV lanes, parking privileges, or ride-share arrangements: Carpool passengers should be ready at the designated pickup time.
The passenger contributes to the trip by helping meet occupancy requirements, sharing fuel costs, or simply reducing traffic.
