ABSTRACT Now a days Carpooling is a sustainable transportation solution aimed at reducing traffic congestion, lowering carbon emissions, and decreasing transportation costs. The carpooling system that integrates ride posting, ride finding, and SOS safety features, designed to enhance both user convenience and safety. The system allows drivers to post available rides by specifying details such as the starting point, destination, time of departure, and available seats. Passengers can find suitable rides by searching for trips that match their preferences, such as route, schedule, and seat availability. A key feature of modern carpooling systems is the integration of safety measures, such as an SOS (emergency) feature. The SOS feature enhances user security by providing immediate access to emergency services or trusted contacts in case of an unsafe situation. When activated, it can share the user's location in realtime, alert authorities, or notify pre-selected emergency contacts and user Real Time tracking. The proposed carpooling platform not only encouraging the development of transportation environment but also prioritizes user safety, making it a reliable and secure option for shared travel. This system can significantly contribute to sustainable urban mobility by encouraging shared rides, reducing the number of vehicles on the road, and enhancing user safety through integrated emergency features. In This paper, we will discuss the development and implementation of the Android Car Pooling Application using the Java, Firebase cloud, Global Positioning System (GPS), KNN algorithm, Decision Tree
