When you go out drinking with friends, it’s easy to let the good times roll. You’re having fun and enjoying each other’s company. It’s not like you would ever think about driving home after a few drinks! Unfortunately, getting behind the wheel in this situation can lead to serious consequences. Fortunately, Safe Designated Drivers is always an an option. Some of the benefits of hiring a designated driver after a long night out include:

Saving money!

Saving money is a huge benefit of hiring a designated driver. The cost of a taxi or Uber ride home will add up quickly, especially if you’re traveling from out of town. A tow truck can also be very expensive, depending on how far away from home your car is towed and how long it takes for them to arrive (if they even show up at all). A designated driver is affordable and an investment into your well-being.

Getting home safely.

Hiring a designated driver is the safest way to get home. A trained professional will get you home safely and quickly in their vehicle, which has been carefully maintained and inspected. They will also be sober, so they can make safe decisions about where to go and how long it will take them when navigating through traffic or weather conditions.

Don’t worry about your car being towed.

If you don’t have a designated driver, you might not be able to get home. If you live in an area where cars are towed for being parked on public streets overnight, then it’s worth considering this as an additional benefit.

Towing companies will often tow cars for being parked illegally or blocking traffic (even if they’re legally parked). This can add up quickly if they’ve towed your vehicle multiple times and are charging by the hour. It’s also stressful to try and find a way home without your car or even know where it is!

No price surge fees.

You will not have to worry about surge pricing or paying for a ride. If you take a cab home and have money left over for food, that’s great! You can use it on your next meal at the restaurant where you had dinner with friends.

It’s also worth mentioning that designated drivers are usually less expensive than cabs because they don’t charge by distance or time spent in transit like taxis do.

No need to wait for a phone call. You know your designated driver is on their way.

You’ll know your designated driver is on their way.

No need to wait for a phone call or text message from an Uber or Lyft driver, and no need to wonder if they’ll show up at all! When you hire a designated driver, they’ll come straight over to pick you up and drive you home safely. You can relax while they get there because you know they’re coming.

A designated driver really is the safest and most reliable option.

A designated driver is the safest, most affordable option. You will be safer. A designated driver is not drinking, so they can drive you home safely. This means that you won’t have to worry about getting into an accident or making any mistakes while driving yourself home after drinking–and neither will anyone else on the road!

You’ll save money on ride sharing apps like Uber and Lyft. While these services can be convenient and reliable when you don’t have anyone available who would make for a good DD, it’s important to keep in mind that they aren’t free: both companies charge per mile driven by their drivers, plus additional fees for things like waiting time at pickup locations or cancellations within 15 minutes of booking your ride (which happens often).
