SAFE RIDE is not a flag down taxi service, and provides rides by request only. Anyone approaching the vehicle during service hours will be directed to submit a request through the Transloc App. See How to Request a Ride for more info.

• Requestors MUST present their ID cards to the driver upon entrance to the vehicle.
• Passenger doors do not unlock until the driver puts the vehicle in park.
• Vehicles are lit internally when the passenger doors are open.
• Video and audio recording devices are present in the vehicles for passenger and driver safety.

SAFE RIDE drivers will wait for 2 minutes at the pick-up location. If the requestor is not answering the alerts sent to their phone, or has found another means of transport, the driver will mark the request "No Show" in order to reach their next request in a timely manner.

SAFE RIDE has wheelchair accessible vehicles. In the meantime, requests requiring wheelchair accessibility may be submitted via the Transloc App.
