Phone app to curb drunk driving
People celebrating the holidays a little too much can avoid getting behind the wheel by using the SaferRide app.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration designed the app, which provides a simple method of calling local taxi services or a pre-programmed contact to request a ride home.
It is available for both iPhone and Android.
