SSMU DriveSafe

We drive safe so you can ride safe.

A student-run service helping students get from point A to point B safely.

Using DriveSafe

Getting a ride is simple, just call our dispatch at (514) 398-8040 or fill out our ride request form and they will dispatch a van to your location if possible. Please note that this service is first come, first served. Only available during operational hours:

Thu-Sat from 11 pm – 3 am (last call at 2:45 am).

All our volunteers are identified by a DriveSafe jacket  and our cars have magnets on the sides that identify them as DriveSafe cars.

DriveSafe’s Extension Initiative

KAHNAWAKE SERVICE

As part of our outreach to marginalized communities initiatives, we are also extending regular service to the Mohawk Territory of Kahnawake! This will become part of our boundary, thus Island of Montreal + Kahnawake. Treat all calls to Kahnawake as regular calls on all days.
