Tipping Your Designated Driver
Limo hire companies believe in supporting their local communities. They know that for their businesses to succeed the local community needs to thrive as well.
Cameron Salem’s limousine service doesn’t just cater to weddings, proms, sporting events or a night out on the town. About a month ago, he started catering to the city’s bars by shuttling people home if they were unable to drive safely.
According to Salem there is no fee to be picked up from the bar. “All we ask is to give the driver a tip. We want to cater to the bars, so no one gets a DUI,” said Salem.
Salem decided to start the business when he could see other limousine companies going in and out of town. He felt there was a demand for such a service. Initially, he talked with local bar owners who were all in favour of the idea. Ed Wilson, owner of Depot Pizza & Tavern on North Monroe Street, said a service like Salem’s makes sense for his business.
The service has two limousines, one which holds twelve passengers and one that holds eight passengers. As for hours, Salem said his phone is always on and he’s ready to pick up anyone that needs a ride. And, anyone can call the limousine service for ‘normal’ events such as engagements, bridal showers, bachelor and bachelorette parties, anniversaries, holidays, graduations, concerts, birthdays or retirement.
Hiring a limo as your mode of transportation for a big night out on the town is a smart move. With your very own limo you don’t have to worry about who is going to drive and how much they had to drink. Your chauffeur is your designated driver ensuring you and your friends have safe night out. Driving while under the influence not only endangers you and your passengers it may even be fatal to other road users.
By organising your hire limo in advance with HireLimos, you can be sure that you won’t risk riding in a dirty - second-trip car that’s been used by God knows who. You can be confident that your limo will be a late model vehicle and not some old, just made it, running late ex-rental.
So, the next time you think about going to the pub for a few drinks, why not give HireLimos a call.
