Senior Ride Program

Clark County

This program provides discounted taxicab fares to seniors and persons with disabilities residing in Clark County through coupon booklets that are accepted by all taxicab companies in Clark County. The coupons can be purchased in books of 20 individual $1.00 coupons or 4 individual $5.00 coupons.  The cost of each coupon book is $10.  Clients are receiving $20 worth of taxicab fare for half the cost!

At this time, each client can purchase up to five (5) coupon books each month. That's $100 worth of cab fare for $50!!

Books are non-refundable and non-exchangeable.


Program Qualifications
 

To qualify for the program an individual must be a Nevada senior, 60 or older, or have a permanent disability. All participants must also be residents of Clark County.
 

Program Registration 

Initial registration requires a personal appearance to the Las Vegas Division for Aging Services office between the office hours of 8:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Monday - Friday, excluding holidays. A State of Nevada-issued picture I.D. is required in order to verify age and residency.  If the senior does not have a Nevada I.D. yet, they must provide a utility bill in their name to prove residency and a picture ID from a reputable source. Those with a permanent disability, who are under the age of 60, must also bring a letter from the Social Security Administration or their doctor, stating such, to prove eligibility. 

Do you have a group of seniors that would like to sign-up for the Senior Ride Program?
Call us! We'll come to you! We can schedule a presentation and sign-up session.
Those who sign-up will be able to purchase coupon books at the presentation.


Purchasing Coupon Books

The purchase of coupon books can be done in person or through the mail. When requested by mail, the client must already be registered in the program. Participants can purchase coupon books at the time of initial registration and may use a check, cash or money order at that time. We do not have the ability to charge a credit card or debit card. If you will be using cash as payment, please bring the correct amount; Senior Ride staff will not have change. After the initial registration we request that participants order books by mail. A check or money order (please do not send cash) can be sent with one business size, self-addressed, stamped envelope for each book requested.  Books must be redeemed by the expiration date and there is a no refund, no exchange policy.

If purchasing books in person, the client must be present unless prior authorization was given to another person to pick up coupon books on their behalf. If the client would like to authorize another person to purchase/pick up their books, they must complete a Senior Ride Authorization Form beforehand. Other written or verbal authorizations cannot be accepted. Taxicab drivers are prohibited from picking up coupon books for their clients.
