Sabbeth Law, a personal injury firm based in Burlington, Vermont, is launching its Sober Holiday Rides program for Independence Day, offering free ride reimbursements to encourage safe travel on July 4, 2026. The initiative targets individuals celebrating the holiday in Vermont or New Hampshire, providing up to $50 reimbursement (including a 10% tip) for a one-way ride home via taxi or rideshare.
Independence Day is historically one of the most dangerous holidays for impaired driving nationwide, according to the firm. As a law firm serving Vermont and New Hampshire, Sabbeth Law has seen firsthand the consequences of preventable drunk driving crashes. “We want people to celebrate responsibly and get home safely,” said Michael J. Sabbeth, Esquire. “If covering the cost of a ride removes one barrier to making a safe decision, it’s worth it.”
To qualify, participants must be 21 or older, and the ride must occur within Vermont or New Hampshire on July 4, 2026. Receipts and valid identification must be submitted between July 5 and July 12, 2026. The reimbursement covers a one-way ride only. Full program details and submission instructions are available at Sabbeth Law’s Sober Holiday Rides page.
The Sober Holiday Rides program is part of Sabbeth Law’s broader commitment to injury prevention and community safety. The firm offers the program during select high-risk holidays throughout the year to help reduce impaired driving incidents across the region. Community members are encouraged to plan ahead, save the program link before going out, and share it with friends. “Getting home safely should never be an afterthought,” Attorney Sabbeth added.
