Start the New Year Right with a Safe Ride Home on McDivitt
Colorado Springs, Co. (PRWEB) December 22, 2013 -- For the seventh year in a row, McDivitt Law Firm is picking up the tab on cab rides for those out celebrating the New Year. It’s all part of McDivitt Makes a Difference, an initiative aimed at increasing education and safety in our community. The Safe Ride Home program is through Yellow Cab in Colorado Springs and City Cab in Pueblo, and will be offered between 10:00pm on December 31, 2013 through 3:00am on January 1, 2014.
McDivitt has been offering the program since 2007 and has given more than 8,000 safe rides home to residents of Southern Colorado. The firm will pick up the tab for any Yellow Cab or City Cab ride, as long as the passengers are headed home – the free ride is not available from a bar or a restaurant to another drinking establishment. (See below for all the guidelines).
“I look forward to celebrating 2014, but I want everyone to be smart about how they kick off the New Year,” said attorney David McDivitt, COO of McDivitt Law Firm. “This is one way we hope to keep our community and our loved ones safe while we all enjoy the festivities.”

Guidelines for a Free Ride Home
The Safe Ride Home Free Cab Ride Home program is for adults who have been drinking or who don’t have another safe way home. Rides are provided to an individual’s residence—not to other drinking locations. Due to the high number of ride requests on New Year’s Eve, rides cannot be guaranteed for everyone who calls; however, every attempt will be made to accommodate all requests. Divers have the right to use their discretion when accepting fares. Patrons are reminded to tip their drivers accordingly.
McDivitt Wants Everyone to Get Home Safely
The professionals at McDivitt Law Firm work with clients who have been injured or lost loved ones in alcohol-related crashes. To assist in the fight against drunk driving, the firm encourages individuals to make responsible choices by providing free cab rides on St. Patrick’s Day, Cinco de Mayo, Halloween, and New Year’s Eve.
McDivitt Law Firm’s Safe Ride Home program continues to receive recognition from the community. In January 2012, U.S. Army Major General Joseph Anderson presented a certificate of recognition to the law firm. In September 2010, the firm was honored by the Pikes Peak DUI Task Force for its efforts to prevent drunk driving.
