GOTCHA Ride Arrives in Auburn University

Not only can you get around town easier, you can also help the environment with
the new eco-friendly taxi service that has recently come to Auburn.
Students at Auburn University have even more opportunities for a safe ride home
from a night downtown or simply a ride back to their car after a football game.
GOTCHA Ride (Green Operated Transit Carrying Humanity Around), originated
at Florida State University and is now partnering up with Auburn to promote a
"green", fun and free taxi service to students.
Auburn, University of Florida and Florida State University are the only schools in
the South that have this service.
Jesse McGill, a student driver for GOTCHA Ride, says he enjoys making sure
people get home safely while having fun doing it.
The only money drivers make is tips received from passengers.
"On a busy night,
I could finish the night with about $100 in tips and around $60 on slower nights,"
McGill said.
