Be safe as you ring in the new year

Hello, 2015!

As you celebrate tonight, please remember to be safe.

Your best bet, of course, is to make sure you always have a designated driver in your group. If you don’t, consider taking advantage of Fort Wayne’s Holiday Cab service. The program, which offers free cab rides within a 10-mile radius of downtown Fort Wayne, is in its 27th year. (If you live more than 10 miles away, don’t worry — you can still call for a cab. You’ll just need to pay the difference.)

Last year, Holiday Cab provided 725 rides during the holiday season.

To request a cab tonight, call (260) 426-1301 before 2 a.m.
