safeRIDE is a cooperative safety-oriented transportation service offered to the Brown University and the Rhode Island School of Design communities, that is, the students, faculty and staff of these institutions and of the hospitals affiliated with Brown Medical School.

All safeRIDE drivers are professionally licensed chauffeurs who have passed extensive background checks and have received, in addition to driver training, Brown University’s sexual-harassment, diversity, and crime-prevention training. safeRIDE drivers are uniformed and wear a safeRIDE photo badge, which you may ask to see at any time.

These services operate primarily as shown below when Brown and RISD are in session. However, this schedule may vary around vacation breaks and at the beginning and end of the semester, which are different for the two institutions. Check this page for variations in the schedule at these times.
