MISSOULA- Mountain Line buses are free on Thursday to help mark the seventh annual National Dump the Pump Day,

The first Dump the Pump day started in 2006, when gas prices first climbed to $3 per gallon, the idea is to promote taking mass public transportation to save money.

Two people in a household can save more than $10,000 by sharing a car, according to an APTA Transit Savings Report, and for every dollar invested in public transportation infrastructure, communities earn back $4.
