5 Sober Rides for New Year's Eve


At Bob Stallings Hyundai, we take health and safety very seriously. Please check out these great resources for sober drivers in Dallas this New Year's Eve...Taxi cab companies can get booked quickly on NYE. Here are more resources for you! 







1) MADD for Sober Drivers, 

The leading ridesharing services are pledging thousands of dollars to Mothers Against Drunk Driving.

Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) announcedMonday it is teaming up with ride-sharing services Lyft and Uber to promote safer roads this New Year’s Eve.
Lyft will donate $1 for every person who makes a “pledge” to travel safely this New Year’s (up to $10,000; 3,753 had pledged as of 2:45 p.m. ET). It started at 6 a.m. local time on Dec. 29 and will run through 6 a.m. on New Year’s Day. Uber will give $1 for every ride nationwide using the promo code “MADDNYE” made between 6 p.m. local time on New Year’s Eve to 6 a.m. the next morning.
New Year’s Day in 2013 was the year’s deadliest day on the roads for drunk driving, according to MADD, with 70 people killed. The organization has supported ride-sharing services in the past, arguing that they help reduce drunk driving by providing alternative options. 

2) UBER Coupon Code 
Uber
Uber will donate $1 for every ride nationwide between 6 p.m. local time on New Year’s Eve to 6 a.m New Year’s Day if riders use the promo code MADDNYE.
