Despite increased awareness over the last few decades, impaired driving remains a leading cause of criminal death in Canada. Keys Please has been doing its part to change that.
Established in 1997, Keys Please drives clients home in their own car when they are unable to drive safely. “We want to be the world leader in making our streets and highways a safer place to travel,” says general manager Ginger Greenwood.
Keys Please has 62 teams of drivers in Calgary. When you book a Keys Please team, one member drives you in your own car while the other team member follows behind. No one plans to drink and drive, but when you find yourself stuck, Keys Please is a safe and convenient option.
“We’re dealing with alcohol. People don’t pay attention to things in the heat of the moment,” says Ginger. “Someone always buys a round. Before you know it you’re at three drinks and no one wants to leave their vehicle behind.”
