Campus life on the move
Bandit is the driving company built by and for college students. We're not chasing profits. We're here to make getting around easy, fun, and affordable. From packed house shows and themed parties to late-night study grinds, Bandit is the ride you actually look forward to. Our drivers are students, just like you, and our cars come with vibes — lights, music, and personality. Fueled by community sponsors and a mission to keep students safe, Bandit isn’t some lifeless, overpriced ride-share. We're a movement on wheels. Your ride. Your people. Your college nights, and everything in between.

Poly Proud
Our Mission
Bandit was founded in June 2024 by a group of Cal Poly business students with a vision to make a positive impact. Inspired by Cal Poly’s entrepreneurial spirit, we partner with local businesses to offer affordable rides for students while providing unique advertising opportunities. Rooted in Cal Poly’s learn-by-doing ethos, Bandit is committed to safety, sustainability, and the well-being of our community. We are Poly Proud and dedicated to making a difference, one ride at a time.
At Bandit, we are committed to providing safe transportation and promoting responsible celebrations. Our mission is personal, inspired by the loss of a high school friend to drunk driving, which fuels our passion for creating a positive change. We believe there is a growing need for safer, more affordable, and reliable ways for students to get around San Luis Obispo, especially during nights out and special events.
