Safe Rides Unlimited is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization (EIN: 20-1536261) with the goal to minimize and prevent Drunk, Distracted and Tired Driving. Our charity has partnered with reputable local transportation companies and negotiated highly discounted rates to provide our customers with safe, luxurious and fun rides at affordable rates. Booking through SafeRides.org can save you up to 50% compared to hiring the same limo company directly.

In 2008, we introduced a realistic and effective alternative to drinking and driving by offering a safe round-trip transportation solution for bringing people to and from their parties safely in Party Buses, Stretch SUVs, Stretch Sedans, Vans, Charter Buses.

We started off by giving Safe Rides to campus students across New Jersey. Currently, we offer safe transportation services nationwide.

Our goal is to achieve the highest possible results in reducing tragic accidents caused by drunk and/or distracted drivers. We are realistic in knowing how difficult it is to change human behavior, especially when alcohol is such an embedded part of social culture. By creating a unique economic model, we have been successful in incentivizing people to use our luxury transportation services. By creating a fun evening and a VIP experience, we are building up a loyal ridership of people who would otherwise chance driving while intoxicated to return home from a night on the town.

Our model is different from Mothers Against Drunk Driving, which channels public outrage and anger over drunk driving tragedies to educate the public and bring legislative change. Likewise, we are different from Alcoholics Anonymous, which has a larger goal of helping people fight and cope with the disease of alcoholism.

Round Trip, also known as pickup/drop off service, is the most popular service. A beautiful luxury vehicle will be waiting for your group of friends at the doorsteps to take you to your destination.

One Way is an affordable service to get to your destination. This is also a convenient way to return back home, if you arrived to the destination by other means.

As a non profit, we do not encourage people to drink while using our safe rides for a couple of reasons. One being that since we partner with clubs we cannot have people show up intoxicated because the club will not allow them entry. Second, our pricing is so low we can not afford to spend money every night to get the cars professionaly cleaned due to spilled alcohol etc.

However, if the customer agrees to accept all responsiblity and understands our promise to get them into clubs for free will no longer apply, they can be allowed to drink. In case someone vomits or if the vehicle is left abnormally dirty then the passengers will be responsible for $150 charge for cleaning.

The first metropolitan markets where we developed our network of member venues and transportation providers were Northern New Jersey and New York City. We now also serve Boston and Los Angeles. Programs for other cities are planned soon thereafter. Our business model is based upon having a sufficient number of venues to support the program. That is why it is not feasible to bring Safe Rides programs to smaller markets and population centers.

The biggest benefit is the steady stream of business brought in by Safe Rides ridership. Likewise the buzz created when Safe Rides limousines arrive to drop off or pick up patrons. However, the real benefit is helping to reduce tragedies resulting from drunken driving accidents. Participation in Safe Rides helps establishments in various ways - reduced liability insurance premiums by taking an active approach to lowering DUI incidents, improved relations with community boards, and enhanced brand awareness and loyalty with Safe Rides growing base of customers.

Because each of these companies is a for-profit business, none can create the same economic model that Safe Rides Unlimited offers. It is a great opportunity for transportation companies to join up with Safe Rides to share in the program's rapid success. The steady stream of business is an excellent incentive to participation.
