If visions of holiday parties – not sugarplums - are running through your head, #TAXI can’t help with a cure for your hangover. It can, however, prevent you from becoming another holiday drunk driving statistic.
With a drunk driving death occurring in North America approximately every 45 minutes, CellWand Communications Inc., a leading provider of on-demand services for mobile phone users, creator of #TAXI and a national sponsor of Mothers Against Drunk Drivers (MADD), is making an offer they hope will be more tempting than driving (or being a passenger) in a car after an evening of holiday partying.
“Our holiday wish is for that last call after “last call” is to #TAXI (#8-2-9-4) on a mobile phone,” says Nick Quain, CellWand’s CEO. “It will connect to the first open dispatch at a local taxi company. It’s available on all major wireless carriers in North America and is the best gift you can give yourself, your friends and your family.
“We’ll even throw in an incentive,” Quain adds. “Go to htpp://www.poundtaxi.com and enter to win $520 in taxi vouchers. That’s $10 a week for a year. You can party all year long, but just do it safely.”
#TAXI connects callers to the first available taxi company or one the caller prefers and avoids busy signals during peak times to make hailing a cab fast and easy anywhere across the US. It is available for $1.25 to $1.79 per call, depending on the wireless carrier and takes no money from taxi companies.
