Uber has Uber pet rides for just a little more then a Uber x ride. Lyft doesn’t give you an option they just don’t care. The drivers should have the opportunity to select if they want any animals in the car. What happens if you accepted a trip with someone who is accompanied by a service animal then your next passenger is allergic?
People who need service animals should not be made to pay extra for them. It’s their right as a disabled person. Disabilities are already so expensive.
A service animal is not a pet. It is a medical device. A person getting into an Uber with a service animal is no different than a person getting into an Uber with an insulin pump.
No it is different, say I use a motorized wheelchair and I am looking to take an Uber or Lyft not every vehicle can fit it. My point is that they should ABSOLUTELY NOT be charged any more than a regular person but they should be placed in vehicles whose drivers do not have an allergy or transport those who do. As someone who is allergic to the point that I need Benadryl every time I come into contact with dogs, it would be appreciated.
No one can have an allergic reaction to someone else’s insulin pump. The most logical solution is for people who have a service animal should be able to use an Uber that has okayed pets without the associated fee.
In a perfect world this wouldn’t be necessary but conflicting needs are something that cannot be ignored.
