SoberRide program will be offered from 10 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 31 until 4 a.m. Sunday, Nov. 1. You must be 21 or older.

To receive a free cab ride home (up to a $30.00 fare), please call 800-200-8294 (TAXI). AT&T customers may dial #WRAP from their wireless phones.

Riders are responsible for any fare over $30.

All requests for SoberRide service must be called to and dispatched from 1-800-200-8294.  Do not call a taxi company directly for SoberRide service as the ride will not be covered under this program.
