If you can make the time, please take the survey detailed below! The more data we collect, the better! This survey is open to all BLV individuals whether you use a cane or a dog, and whether you use rideshare or not!<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Do you use public transportation, taxis, or rideshare (such as Uber or Lyft)? Share your thoughts and experiences by taking a short survey. This survey is part of a study investigating the various modes of transportation used by blind and low vision individuals. One of the main goals of the study is to better understand the travel experiences of blind and low vision individuals especially when using rideshare apps such as Uber and Lyft. We invite you to take part in this survey even if you have not used rideshare services before.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Online survey is available here: <a href="tinyurl.com/blvtransport"><span style='color:#0563C1'>tinyurl.com/blvtransport</span></a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Questions?
