“Take A Ride on Us” Program Offers Santa Fe/ Rio Rancho/ Albuquerque Residents a Safe Ride Option for Cinco de Mayo Weekend 2024

Santa Fe, NM—Cumulus Media Albuquerque, in collaboration with the Santa Fe County DWI Program, Bernalillo County Department of Behavioral Health, Sandoval County DWI Prevention, Glasheen Valles and Inderman Injury Lawyers, and The New Mexico Department of Transportation announced today details for a safe ride option for 2024 Cinco de Mayo celebrations. “Take A Ride on Us” provides Santa Fe, Bernalillo, and Sandoval County residents with the option to take advantage of a safe ride option instead of driving under the influence. 

Rather than driving under the influence, the program will offer safe rides from 10 am on May 3rd through 2 am on May 6th; Santa Fe, Bernalillo, and Sandoval County residents can open the Uber app and under VOUCHERS, add the code NMCINCO24. By using the code, riders will receive a credit of up to $10 off two trips. The maximum number of trips available is 2000. First come, first served. The credit can only be used for rides, not Uber Eats, and the discount does not cover tip. Residents can access Uber vouchers by clicking on this link: https://r.uber.com/NMCINCO24.

Residents will be reminded about the code throughout Cinco de Mayo weekend through various radio stations, eD FM, Magic 99-5, 95.9 FM/610 AM The Sports Animal, and 94.5 The Pit.

Cumulus Media Albuquerque, Bernalillo County, Sandoval County, Santa Fe County, Glasheen Valles and Inderman Injury Lawyers, Sandia Resort & Casino and ENDWI encourage residents to take advantage of this program rather than drive under the influence. By drinking responsibly and using the “Take a Ride on Us program,” together we can ENDWI.
