The program can be used for any uncomfortable or inconvenient situation, such as a date, keys locked in car, stranded at an undesirable location, car trouble, fatigue, a sober ride home, or a number of other situations. Students should not use Safe Ride as their only option for safe transportation, rather it should be considered a last resort when other options have fallen through that evening.
Students can access Safe Ride by calling (479) 575-SAFE (7233). Students with special needs or who require a lift-equipped vehicle should notify the dispatcher at the time of request. Students must present a valid student ID and can only have one guest ride with them. Safe Ride will only transport students to their local address listed in UAConnect.
