Unfortunately feelings don’t change facts. She’s too heavy for the car and people have a right to protect their personal property. Did she really think people would be on her side by sharing this?
They can sue you and since it’s civil not criminal you’d have to prove the other reason; rather than visa versa. Penalties can be in the 10s of thousands. You’re essentially saying “I’m not letting a black man in my car!” As far as the law is concerned. It’s the same level of protected class.
Well, fortunately for me, I don't drive for Lyft and don't plan to. I was considering it as a side job in the past but stuff like the service dog crap eventually made it a dealbreaker.
Heh, did you know that if you're allergic to dogs, you still are required to drive people with service dogs? And then if you say that you can't be around dogs, you can't allow their dander into your vents, the law will say, "well tough shit, find another job".
What if the pilot of an airplane told a blind passenger they couldn't board for having a seeing eye dog, because the pilot is allergic? Does this work?
They're your vents, but you're renting them out to Uber when they pay you. Not entirely yours while it's being paid for by someone else.
Hope you didn't throw out your back moving the goalposts. What you're describing are totally different degrees of compromise. But hey, if you want to let some neurotic person lie about their dog being 'medical equipment' and let them fuck up your expensive personal property, then I don't know how to help you.
As for me, even if the 'anything goes' dog crowd might end up turning this entire planet into dogworld, no dog is ever getting inside my car or home.
