No More Price Shock: How Surge-Free Rides Protect Student Budgets
Transportation should never wreck a student’s budget—especially when safety is on the line.
One of the biggest hidden expenses in college life is transportation. Students plan for tuition, books, and food—but rarely for the sudden $42 Uber ride at 1:30 AM.
