Santa Fe County DWI Program Offers $5 Cab Ride Home for Cinco de Mayo
The Santa Fe County DWI Program will offer the subsidized Cab Ride Home program on Tuesday, May 5, 2015. Partygoers, celebrators, and anyone enjoying a drink out on the town can take the cab home for $5. Call 438-0000 between 5:30 p.m. and 2:30 a.m.
“I hope people get in the habit of keeping their cars keys in their pocket at the end of the night and call for a Cab Ride Home instead. Don’t drive if you have been drinking, even a little, Think SaFe and take a Cab Ride Home,” said Lupe Sanchez, DWI Program Coordinator.
The Cab Ride Home program typically runs from 5:30 p.m. to 2:30 a.m. Friday and Saturday nights. The normal rate for the subsidized ride home is $5 per cab for 1-2 riders and $10 per cab for 3 or more. The DWI Program offsets the first $25 of these cab rides home. Patrons are responsible for any portion of the fare over $25.
