Will Car Sharing Work in Raleigh?

Somewhere between borrowing a car from a buddy and renting one is the concept of car sharing. Think of renting a car for about $11.25 per hour.

Cool idea. Dude, don't use all my gas. The operators agree that this business model relies on people acting nicely. No smoking please and keep the ketchup off the seats. It remains to be seen if this can turn a profit, but I like it.

I think NCSU should definitely adopt it. Could also be an answer in the Triangle to the failed public rail plan.
