Tipsy? Call the scooter guy

tipsy? call the scooter guy

My article covers the aspect of oddity.  The name is pretty catchy and it is to inform people on how to be safer on the roads.  The gist of it is that there is a guy who runs a service in South Carolina that people call when they have had too much to drink.  The scooter service sends a guy who comes to where you are at... maybe a bar or a party... then he folds his little scooter up and puts it in the back of your car and drives you in you car home.  Then when he drops you off, you are safe and you have your car where you need it when you wake up.  He then drives away to the next call on his scooter.


They are trying to reach the audience of college kids and people of legal drinking age who like to go out and have fun and party but don't want to risk their lives and others' on the attempt to get home.

 
I think that this article (or video) is a good thing to be put out there for people because it lets them know safer ways to get home.  The drunk driving accidents that have been recorded in the past years have been through the roof.  Basically, they are trying to make the roads safer for others and just happend to make a business out of it.  I think that this article also could be a way to show other big cities or places where people party, that they could take up this idea and make their roadways safer also.  Together, we could eliminate drunk driving for just a small price of having some dude on a street-leagal mini scooter hop in your car and drive you to your house for a small amount of money.
