1-800-TAXICAB.com Unveils its SafeRide Program to Promote
a Tangible Alternative to Drinking & Driving
LOS
ANGELES, Calif., May 3 - 1-800-TAXICAB.com today announced the
debut of its SafeRide program with the cosponsorship of several
Major League Baseball teams. The company’s SafeRide program
is a national initiative to promote a tangible alternative to
drinking and driving.
“Many fine organizations have long voiced their support for
responsible drinking behavior, but very few have proposed specific
solutions,” said 1-800-TAXICAB.com CEO, Mark Adkins. “Now, anyone
can simply dial the toll-free number 1-800-TAXICAB in cities
all over North America for immediate taxicab service so there’s
no need to drink and drive.”
The SafeRide program has initially been targeted at large audiences
attending sporting events, though the company intends to broaden
its reach to university campuses, restaurants, and other establishments
that serve alcohol. The program is operational in the stadiums
of the San Diego Padres, Oakland A’s, Anaheim Angels, and St.
Louis Cardinals.
By
promoting the 1-800-TAXICAB number, the company hopes to make
people everywhere aware of a single source for taxicab service
all across North America. “It’s hard enough to remember the
number for a cab company in your own city, let alone when you’re
on the road,” said Adkins. “Simply dialing 1-800-TAXICAB will
now get you patched through to a local cab company, wherever
you’re calling from.”

headquartered in Los Angeles, California, provides passengers
with immediate access in over 100 North American cities to ground
