Take a Back Seat to Safety

Central Ohio Safe Ride was established in 2009 as a coalition of local bars, businesses, and the Columbus Public Health department to reduce the incidents of drunk driving throughout central Ohio.

​Whether you are heading out to celebrate a birthday, graduation or just looking to hear some music and have a few drinks, Central Ohio Safe Ride is your way home.

All throughout the year, Central Ohio Safe Side makes getting home after a night of partying safe, easy, and affordable. St. Patrick’s Day festivities, the Dublin Irish Festival, and the Memorial Tournament are just a few of the community events that have partnered with Safe Ride in the past year.
