"On her first night out in downtown Gainesville, Irrizary lost her friends in a crowd and found herself stranded without a ride home.

'I wish I had SafeCar that night. What I needed was a way to get home without the hassle.'"

W. Irrizary - Freshman, University of Florida
From Student Leader Magazine - Fall 2003

"I really think that this is a great idea and it could save a lot of lives. I can't speak for all college students, but we would definitely use a service like this at UCLA."

"Students that have come into my office have said "Absolutely yes." So I knew this is something that had a real opportunity for success. I immediately thought this could have a huge benefit for the student population."

Karen Rosewood
College Adminstrative Officer, University of California Santa Cruz
From The Hilltop Magazine - 2005

"Taxi service can sometimes be the only way for a college student to return to a residence hall or apartment, especially when the hour of the night is late and other transportation options are shut down for the evening. Just imagine if your son or daughter is at a party where the only available ride home is with an unfit driver, or on a bad date he or she wishes was over, or simply stranded somewhere without cash or access to an ATM. The question is: How will your young adult get home safely? The answer can be: SafeCar Services."

From "News You Can Use" - July 23, 2004

"Thanks for the AAA referral on July 3rd. The AAA Customer Service Representative told me they contacted SafeCar after they exhausted all of their options. No other service could help."

Dave Noyes
Owner, Dave's Cab - 2006

"Increasing options to get home safely is moving in the right direction."

Gillian Greensite, Rape Prevention Center, University of California Santa Cruz

"We think {SafeCar} is just phenomenal, and it could be just the beginning of a very active program that people are going to see and say "That was a great idea."

Owner and General Manager, Yellow Cab - 2005
