Now that’s a different story. I haven’t had a guide in years, but you’re always hearing about terrible experiences with folks and their dogs. Part of it has to do with the driver’s lack of knowledge having to do with service animals and regulations and sometimes they’re just jerks. Refusing to pick you up upon arrival, maybe they see you as they’re driving up and decide to keep on going. Give you lip and harass you about your dog during the ride. Maybe they’ll claim your dog did X, Y and Z in their car and try to stick you with a cleaning charge, etc. That’s basically going to be more hit and miss.

All in all my Uber/Lyft experiences have been fine. You get the occasional character, but nothing that would have made me feel uncomfortable. Then again, I’m 6-2 and 240 pounds. So I can appreciate the concern of a woman traveling by herself. Remember, you can rate your driver and if you give them a low rating, you won’t’ be pared with that driver again or at least that is how it’s supposed to work.

Has anyone on the list had any issues like assaults or whatever? As a senior totally blind woman saving a couple of bucks is not worth taking unsafe rides. Is there any thing to these rumors or am I just being overly cautious? Marie _____ <http://www.avast.com/> This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!
