ND Sober Ride was a gift on the roads during the holidays
For Immediate Release: Jan 19 2023
STATEWIDE, N.D. – The holidays were a little brighter in 2022 with more North Dakotans choosing ND Sober Ride to get home safely.
159 sober rides were provided to Lyft riders from Dec. 19, 2022 – Jan. 2, 2023.
“Many North Dakotans took personal responsibility during the holiday season by choosing to use ND Sober Ride,” said Highway Safety Division Director Karin Mongeon. “This program reduces the number of impaired drivers on the road and allowed riders to celebrate the holiday season with their family and friends because of their positive choice.”
Rides are sponsored by AAA – The Auto Club Group of North Dakota. Companies interested in becoming a part of the solution can sponsor ND Sober Ride by contacting NDDOT Safety Public Information Program Manager, lwahlman@nd.gov.
This campaign is part of the Vision Zero strategy to eliminate motor vehicle crash fatalities and serious injuries on North Dakota roads.
