You always know what you are paying for A 'police taxi' with a distinctive paint job has hit the streets of Norfolk to discourage people from drinking and driving.

The front half of the Chevrolet Impala is painted like a typical police car, while the back half is painted like a Coastal Ride taxi with the words "Safe Ride" on the side.

"Police taxis are used at DUI checkpoints and are displayed at various locations and events throughout the city," explained Lt. Michael Felix of the Norfolk Police Traffic Division.

"Our hope in donating this vehicle to the police is to encourage our community to drink responsibly and never drink and drive," said Coastal Ride President Judith Swistun.

A message painted on the side reads, "Choose your ride," pointing out that a tax drive can cost about $15, while a police drive for DUI can cost up to $8,100.

Police Taxis will debut on Friday evenings, during "First Fridays" in downtown Norfolk, and will initially serve as a rolling billboard.

The city says it doesn't operate as a standard police car, and it doesn't operate as a taxi. Instead, it was designed to start a discussion and make people think before acting.

"The goal behind this unique vehicle is to raise public awareness, generate discussion about the dangers of impaired driving and remind motorists to make responsible decisions while drinking," Felix said.
