Safe Ride’s goal is to help reduce DUI incidents and
encourage safe transportation by providing students financial
reimbursement for rideshare trips. Sac State students can request
up to $40 cash back (until funds last) per
semester for rides taken from rideshare services, taxis, and
public transportation. The Safe Rides program also allows
students to claim cash back for SMOG checks, and vehicle safety
inspection fees.
ASI is not liable for any incidents associated with the rides or
services performed on your vehicle. Students are taking
rides and using vehicle inspection services at their own
risk. ASI does not guarantee reimbursements for all rides, SMOG
checks or vehicle services. Requests must have proper
documentation and will only be reimbursed until the max amount of
allotted funds per semester is reached. If you have any questions
please reach out to us.
Step 1
Take a ride in the United States using any ride sharing
program of your choice. Or complete a SMOG/Vehicle Safety
Inspection from a CA licensed service
provider. Must pay with a valid credit/debit
card issued in your name. Ride or service must be within the
current semester.
Step 2
Get a receipt listing all trip details in one image
that must include: the date/time of the ride, pick up
and drop off locations, the cost of the ride, and the last four
digits of the card used. For Smog Checks & Vehicle Safety
Inspections: receipt must show the business’s name and
contact information, date of service, type of service, cost
(including tax) and the last 4 digits of your valid debit/credit
card.
Step 3
Fill out the Safe Rides cash back
form and
upload an image of the receipt and your debit/credit
card used to pay (with only last four digits and name
shown).
Step 4
Receive an email when your reimbursement is processed and ready
to be mailed out to you.
