Absolutely.
I routinely get an effective (person miles) 42 mpg, or even 63 mpg from my Volvo by coordinating with other parents and carpooling the kids to/from events. And one or two fewer cars on the roads increases overall safety, rather than reducing it. Wear/tear saved on car... Hey I even save a bit on insurance by staying under 7500 miles/year.
