Detroit-area law firm renews 'Safe Ride Home' initiative

Christensen Law is continuing its “Safe Ride Home” program for people who have had too much to drink on New Year’s Eve.

“Based on the success we had with our ‘Safe Ride Home’ program for Thanksgiving Eve, we wanted to continue the program for New Year’s Eve as a service to the
community,” said Dave Christensen, founder of Christensen Law in Southfield. “We’re proud to say we helped over 125 people return home safely.”

Drinking is often part of New Year’s Eve celebrations, he said, and the law firm wants to help people get home safely to begin the new year.

As a personal injury lawyer, Christensen has seen people suffer as a result of drunk driving and has been involved with organizations such as the Washtenaw Council on Alcoholism, Spectrum Treatment and Prevention Services, and others that deal with alcohol/drug addiction.

Christiansen detailed how the initiative works:

If you’ve had too much to drink on New Year’s Eve, call a cab or Uber to take you from the bar to your home.

Pay for the ride that night and get a receipt. 

The next day, email a copy of your receipt along with a copy of your driver’s license to saferidehome@davidchristensenlaw.com to receive a reimbursement of up to $35.

The following restrictions will apply:

• Offer is good from 4 p.m. on Dec. 31, 2015 to 4 a.m. on Jan. 1, 2016.

• You must be at least 21 years old.

• Maximum reimbursement is $35, good for a one-way ride to your home.

• Receipts must be received by Christensen Law by midnight, Jan. 4, 2016 to be eligible for reimbursement.

• Ride must be within Wayne, Macomb, Oakland and Washtenaw counties.

• Provider of ride must be a licensed taxi company or Uber.

• Email a copy of the official taxi company or Uber receipt along with a copy of your valid driver’s license to saferidehome@davidchristensenlaw.com OR send those materials via U.S. Mail to Christensen Law Safe Ride Home, 25925 Telegraph Rd., Suite 200, Southfield, MI 48033.
