The demise of the DWI one drive at a time

Beyond the Spotlight

Geoff Pickle, web producer at Springfield Business Journal interviews Joe Williams, owner of Substitute Drivers, the service that will drive you home in your own car if you've had too much to drink. Joe saw a need for this service after getting a DWI of his own and learning just how high the rates of DWI were in Springfield. He explains how everyone involved in the situation benefits and some of the logistics entailed in running a business that involves driving someone else's car. He also talks about the support he's received from customers, community, and the Springfield Police Department.
