Dorre said girls or anyone who may
find themselves in an uncomfortable
situation would have a safe way to get
home. He also said exchange students
who may not have a lot of money or a
car and want to attend a show at Thalian
Hall would now have that opportunity.
Whatever the reason may be - students
now have a way to get around, Dorre
said.
“There’s so many different opportu
nities for this program to work and ben
efit the students; it’s not just about
drinking,” Dorre said.
He said once the administration com
munity sees that it isn’t just about drink
ing they will be all the more support-
As for drinking and driving, Dorre
said having this program in place is
worth it if it keeps someone from being
involved in an alcohol-related accident.
The SGA has thus far given Safe-
Ride a budget of $ 1,000 a month on the
program, but has a goal in mind for the

program to be self-supporting as soon as
possible. They are also looking into
possible sponsorships from organiza
tions like MADD and SADD.
UNCW junior, Chris Sepesy, is glad
to see Safe-Ride make its debut. He also
thinks the idea of vouchers for cab fare
is a better idea than a shuttle because it
gives students more freedom to go where
they want when they want.
Sepesy said college students are al
ways looking for ways to save money
and this is a good one, “There’s a lot of
times we don’t go downtown because
cabs are expensive.”
Sepesy believes not everyone will use
Safe-Ride just as a way to get to the bars
downtown, but if they do at least they
can get home safe.
“It’s a good step forward to reduce
drunk driving,” he said.
These taxi companies will accept the
Safe-Ride vouchers, which are worth $5
in cab fare: Beach Buggy Taxi, Coastal
Yellow Cab, Lett’s Taxi, Port City Taxi
and Sand Hills Transportation.
