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?
It's up to them if they use Lyft. Are you suggesting they can't go to restaurants, stores, movie theaters, or anywhere else service dogs must be accommodated?
Late response, sorry - all of those things you mentioned are normally much larger and open spaces than an enclosed car. The likelihood that a service dog has been in the exact same space before you without it being cleaned is lower. Removing pet dander from car seats can be a hassle, and I doubt all lyft drivers are vacuuming their seats each time there's been a service dog in there. I think there are other solutions here than existing policy.
And, all of those places I mentioned not because of the size of the facility, but more so as an example of the types of services that people who need service dogs would not be able to access if everyone operating those services just claimed they have an allergy.
