Impaired driving is a major contributor to death and injury on Portland streets. More than half of deadly crashes in Portland involve people who are intoxicated. Safe Ride Home helps to achieve the City of Portland’s Vision Zero Action Plan’s goal of launching initiatives to reduce impaired driving.
"With over 50 percent of deadly crashes in Portland involving people who are intoxicated, it is imperative that we educate people about the importance of choosing a safe ride home," said Transportation Director Leah Treat. "We are pleased to work with our colleagues at the Portland Police Bureau, TriMet and with taxi and transportation network companies to help Portlanders get to and from their festivities safely on New Year’s Eve."
"As we prepare to greet 2018, I want to remind everyone to drive sober," said Portland Police Chief Danielle Outlaw. "If you plan to consume intoxicants, find a designated sober driver, use public transportation or hire a ride. Help keep Portland’s roadways and community members safe so everyone can have a healthy and happy New Year.”
The Safe Ride Home program is a partnership between PBOT, the Portland Police Bureau, TriMet, Old Town Hospitality Group, and Portland cab companies Radio Cab, Broadway Cab, New Rose City Cab and United Independent Cab, as well as transportation network companies Lyft and Uber.
