| Dear Parents,
Fridays, Saturdays, car keys and being between the age of sixteen and twenty-four can be a deadly combination. Eighty percent of all traffic fatalities in this age group occur on these nights. Impaired driving continues to be the leading criminal cause of death in this country. The more occupants in a car operated by a member of this age group, the more likely that a crash may occur.
This past weekend was witness to the deaths of five members of this vulnerable age group in Ontario. Researchers and road safety experts know the causes that attribute to the weekend tragedies. The question is how to prevent this needless loss of life.
There are many programs that advocate safe driving practices, however very few offer affordable and accessible solutions. Programs based on education and awareness alone will only provide a partial remedy.
Every parent fears the "Two O’clock knock". The police officer standing at your door. Your eyes meet. You want to know the eerie part. You already know what they are about to say.
TaxiMiles Inc. is a unique program, which specifically addresses the issue of young persons arriving home safely. You as a parent have the ability to provide your children with alternative transportation. TaxiMiles currency is only redeemable for taxi fares. There is no cash surrender value.

In partnership, with its taxi company partners in Toronto and surrounding GTA today with over 3000 taxies available and accepting the unique TaxiMiles currency, offers the community a truly simple way to reach a taxi anywhere in Canada.
