I certainly think the driver switch could have been because of the drivers concerns about the guide dog. However, I do know that a cited friend of mine has complained about how Uber will switch drivers on you in the middle like that. I generally use Lyft. They are a bit more expensive but they do not do that. The driver stays the same and if you do get a driver who refuses you because of your dog, that ride is just canceled. No driver switch in between.

That just gives them the excuse to decline the trip without even showing up. What happened was they probably were scared of dogs I didn’t want to bother with the dog and then they’ve got another driver. It is in the record, it’s just not on the Uber app. But the Uber people can access it. please report it in the Uber app. And I would also go to

Please let me know if you have anymore questions, is I am coordinating the rideshare testing for the Chicago area. Thanks.Leslie
