Operation Red Nose is up and running again on the North Shore, ready to get drivers home safely this holiday season.

The designated-driver service, run by the North Shore’s Rotary clubs, employs a team of volunteers who will get you and your car home safely to any location from Horseshoe Bay to Deep Cove. Volunteers work in groups of three, with two drivers – one for your car and one for the escort car – and a navigator assigned to each ride. The service is available to motorists who have been drinking alcohol as well as those who don’t feel fit to drive because of fatigue or medication.

Operation Red Nose services will be available from 9 p.m. to 3 a.m. on Dec. 6, 7, 13, 14, 20, 21 and New Year’s Eve.
