Contract Program

Designated Driving Services has expanded our services to families in Bucks & Montgomery by starting a new program titled "DDS Safe Ride Home Contract" This contract program is designed to strengthen communication between parents/guardian, teenagers, and young adults about potentially dangerous situations that they will face related to driving impaired, reckless driving, peer pressure, and physical assault. The issues facing teens and young adults today are often too difficult for them to address alone. Parents can help by talking to their teen about the rules and how important it is to follow them, especially after research from The Allstate Foundation shows that three out of four teens and young adults say their parents would be the best influence in getting them to follow the rules. We believe that effective communication is critically important in helping family members make smart decisions. We want all family members in the households to have peace of mind that comes from knowing that their loved ones will be responsible in making the right decision if or when that time comes.

Hello mom/dad/wife /husband I am in a situation and I need a safe ride home! Or Hello I am sorry to inform that there has been a tragic accident!

Designated Driving Services' "DDS Safe Ride Home Contract" program will no doubt:
· bring security to the family

How can any family pass up such a great opportunity to show how much they care for one other? All that has to be done is that all parties fill out contracts and send back with a $20.00 donation. Once we receive contract, your family will receive a packet that will include:

Copy of contract sign and seal by DDS
Transportation card for each signee
A family night out transportation card
Options of all ways to get family members home safely.
