University student works as a sober driver for extra money
@KelcJen
One University student is putting a positive spin on getting caught drinking underage. She's decided to make extra money by offering sober rides to other students.

Kaitlyn Gefroh, a sophomore from Fargo, N.D., said she decided to start giving sober rides after she got a minor in possession of alcohol charge. Since she is on diversion and has to stay out of trouble for the next year, she's turned her experience into something positive by working on the other side of drinking.
"Well, I can't go out and drink anymore, and I need money to pay for the diversion, so I'll just give rides to people that can go out and drink," she said.
Gefroh also works at the Student Fitness Recreation Center teaching fitness classes, but she hopes to make extra cash with the designated driver gig.
Kaitlyn Gefroh, a sophomore from Fargo, N.D., posted fliers in Wescoe Hall advertising rides for drunk students at a cost of $5 per passenger. Gefroh started the job to help pay off her diversion costs after she got an MIP.
For $5 per passenger, she will drive students in need of a ride home anywhere in Lawrence. She doesn't use a GPS since she knows her way around Lawrence pretty well, and plans to rely on directions from the impaired passengers.
She got the designated driver idea from an app called Lyft, which people can download to connect them with drivers in their area. Drivers must apply for the position and pass a background check to be able to use the app service, but Gefroh said she isn't old enough to qualify, so she has gone off on her own and has marketed herself through fliers on campus.
"Well, I can't go out and drink anymore, and I need money to pay for the diversion, so I'll just give rides to people that can go out and drink."
"I'm only 19, but I can drive," she said.

Gefroh tossed the idea around with her boyfriend, Tyler Gonser, who is supportive of it and agreed to help her out if she needs it.
"She's really a responsible person," said Gonser, a junior
Even though she'll give rides to both males and females, Gefroh will play it safe and said she plans to take her boyfriend along if the passengers are all males, which her boyfriend thinks is a good idea.
from Tonganoxie. "I really don't have to worry about her when she's driving around, just helping people out."
the fliers, the tear-off tabs with her number were gone, so it seems promising that she'll be getting calls in the future.
"Even just a male presence will deter a lot of stuff," he said.
She drives a Chevy Malibu, so she's limited to four passengers, but at $5 a passenger, the cash could add up quickly if business picks up.
Gefroh just put up the fliers in Wescoe Hall a few weeks ago, so she hasn't had much business yet, but she has gotten a of couple calls, and her service has gone well so far. The last time she checked
Gefroh said she's not sure how long she'll keep up her service, but she'll keep doing it until she gets tired of it. She said she doesn't have plans to expand her service or market beyond putting posters up around campus.
