[nagdu] Concerns arise over Uber's accessibility for personswith disabilities

[Debby Phillips]

Hi Abigail, well, right or wrong, here's my take on this.  Even 
though Uber and LYFT drivers are using their own personal 
vehicles, they are making their services available to the public, 
and therefore should be required, as with taxis, to take people 
with service dogs.  Whether you tell them or not, that's a 
personal decision.  I don't tell a taxi driver that I have a dog 
when I call.  I usually will tell them that I am blind so that 
they will identify themselves to me.  I don't want to be standing 
there and have the cab driver sitting there waiting for me and 
then drive away.  Do others tell cab companies that they are 
traveling with a guide dog?    Peace,    Debby and Neena
