10 TV: Columbus Public Health hopes a program to hand out vouchers for taxi rides will keep drivers safe during the St. Patrick's Day holiday. As part of the Columbus Safe Ride Program, $10 vouchers for taxi rides will be handed out at Byrne's Pub, located at 1248 W. Third Avenue, or Fado Irish Pub, located at 4022 Townsfair Way…

The vouchers are available through March 18 and are valid for four taxi companies - A One Taxi & Shuttle, Arch Express, Buckeye Campus Taxi and German Village Taxi. According to Columbus Public Health, three people were killed and 158 injured during the St. Patrick's Day holiday in the last two years.
