Is there a way for more than one person to travel in a vehicle if you are trying to achieve social distancing measures required for Coronavirus protection?

i don't have access to any school buses and "yes" all people in this model are alive.

Let's assume there are 4 people that you have to transport to a jobsite each morning with the drive time being around 45 minutes (one way). Pre-virus they all ride in the same truck (double cab) and not problem. But, now?

Trump and Co. are able to do it with 6 people standing on a 10' x 5' stage. So it shouldn't be an issue.

You are suppose to be self-isolating, so you can't car pool anyone.

There is still an operating Drive in theater less than a mile from my house. It's the only place still showing movies right now.

does that completely stop the virus? or is it a cure if you are already infected?

The test trials are still pending.
About an hour ago my wife said she'd like to take a shower. I nixed the idea and told her if she gets too funky smelling I'll spray her down with some Febreze.

that sounds like solid medical advice. you never want these sick people to become too clean. its better to let them sit in their sweat and virus soaked clothing for as long as possible. If they don't stew in the mess they got themselves into they won't learn how to act when they are let back into the public population.

If they're dead they're not contagious, I think.

Do you have access to rolls of polyethylene?

That plus duct tape and you can create isolation cubicles in the car. Four door car, cube for each passenger.

P.S. Won't be able to use the rear view mirror or passenger side mirror. Probably not legal, but any cop would probably be amused and not issue a ticket?

The only thing to do is make everyone wear n95 masks if you have them. It's a respiratory virus. Everyone wear a mask. Sanitize their hands when before they get in the car. And spray Lysol on all surfaces they came into contaxt with until saturated. Has to stay wet for at least 60 seconds allow to air dry. Gloves are useless, you don't shed through your hands. Your hands are just the tools you use to interact with the world, so you spread the germs using them. Think of it like having greasy hands. Make them clean the greaseoff their hands before they spread it everywhere.

Crack the windows so you don't sit there rebreathing everyone's air but don't roll it all the way down so it's potentially forcefully blowing air around the edges of the mask.

If you are REALLY paranoid wrap your seats in old sheets and wash them daily in hot water. But really, the breathing masks are all you can do. If anyone is sick, it will stay within their mask. You can still absorb it through your eyes (mucus membrane) so the idea is to trap the airborne particulate before it gets in the air.

Personally, I'd make everyone wear a mask and then put a pillow case over their head. Black pillowcases. You'll get the social distancing you want from the rest of the public, maybe not the police. But they'll understand once you explain

Solved this one this morning, what you need to do is consume half a dozen pints of beer the night before with a curry, then when you enter the vehicle you declare 'social distancing' and let rip.
