How DrivePath safety tips by text work, and how to stop them.
The safety tips program
DrivePath Safety, at drivepathsafety.com and a brand of Consumer Response Media, sends recurring automated marketing text messages to people who type their own mobile number into the Safety tips by text page, the home page, the trip checklist page or the contact form and tick the text message box. The messages carry seasonal car safety reminders, notice of new guides on the site and messages about the sign-up itself, including the confirmation and the replies to HELP and STOP. Each starts with [DrivePath Safety].
Sent by DrivePath, about DrivePath’s own guides
DrivePath keeps your number and your consent to itself and never passes them to a repair shop, dealer, parts seller or any other business. A DrivePath text is general information. It never says what is wrong with your vehicle, never books a repair and never asks for payment details. If a message claiming to be from DrivePath asks for any of those, do not reply to it; call us instead.
Opting in
Mobile numbers are collected only on the Safety tips by text page, the home page form, the trip checklist page form and the contact form, each with a text message box you tick yourself. After you opt in, DrivePath sends one confirmation text.
Consent is not a condition of purchase or service.
How often
Message frequency varies, up to 4 messages per month.
