A personal injury law firm is making an offer to make travel safer on Independence Day.

The firm of Fowler, Pickert and Eisenmenger in Kansas City is offering $10 credits for Uber rides for up to 500 people on the night of July 4.

People who accept the credits are required to pledge not to drink and drive, said Ryan Fowler, a member of the firm.

"We felt this was an opportunity to help people before any incident occurs," Fowler said. "If we can help people plan to be safe we can avoid those catastrophic injuries that we see in our line of work, before they happen."

The credits are for Uber rides that originate in the River Market area, from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Independence Day.

The credits are available at the law firm's website.
