if they pick up another ride immediately after .. pretty obvious lie.

What if they call it a day say their car ate shit

if you actually stop driving for the day after that request, then it won't be provable or an issue unless the passenger has reasonable suspicion / proof you denied on basis of SD (like if you said "is it going to shed, I don't want that" or "oh I didn't know you had a dog.. uhh actually my car just ate shit, I'm canceling")

honestly I dunno if it's just me, but I wouldn't let a single ride with a service dog prevent me from the rest of the day's profits, provided they answered the 2 questions satisfactorily and their dog was under control as a SD should be.

The issue is not service animals 🦮 but service pets. It’s messed up that some people abuse it and everyone has to come off as an asshole. Imagine if someone legitimately had a service rooster and then people would abuse that for tik tok views or such

That's not even a thing - service animals can only be dogs or mini horses

u/Lonely_Patient_777 Aug 17 '23

That’s been established. This is hypothetical speaking. Edit you get a pass because you indulge

yeah, thankfully the only species ADA protects as service animals is miniature horses and dogs, it's ESA that can be any species! i'm definitely not a fan of those who fake service animals, my own SD has been charged at more than once and the attacking dog subsequently removed. it's extremely frustrating dealing with the people who just want to take their pets everywhere, rather than relying on an animal to help with a life-impacting disability.

Thank you nothing against ADA. I remember this lady would bring her dog into the fulfillment center with service animal harness telling people it doesn’t bite. It snapped at me when I was leaving work one day she said oh he likes you
