A friend of mine just told me a bout a commercial she saw about Uber
with a guy and his guide dog, the guy sayin how much he appreciates the
service, and so on; what ticked her off was the driver was petting the
dog in harness, and her feeling was since this was being shown on tv the
general public would get the idea that was acceptable. I told her the
guy may not have even known the driver was petting the dog.
I heard about tehe lawsuit. No one can put my dog in the trunk of their
car unless I say they can.
Never quite understood that.
Enough said, getting a bit OT here I guess.

As far as the dog, while in theory, you and your service animal are protected
udner the ADA, in practice, you may find the reality to be totally different.
Maybe the best way to avoid any unpleasant issues or drivers when it comes to
the dog is to have your profile photo of you and your dog all harnessed and
ready to go. At least this way, whoever accepts your fair when you put out a
request should at the very least be aware that you have a guide.
I know with Lyft, you can at the end of the ride when rating the driver also
tip a set amount or enter in an amount you deem fit. I haven't used Uber in a
while, but don’t' recall this being an option in the app. I believe you can set
a fixed tip amount within your profile page online. I don’t' know if that's
ideal in case you get a rude or crappy driver, but there you go.

At the end of the ride, the app automatically charges your credit card. There
is no way to add a tip. If your city offers lift, that app does offer that
capability. As far as a dog, while trying to stay on topic for this list, I
admit that I am not one to inform the driver ahead of time. Uber does have some
issues with refusing to take dog users, I am of the opinion that is their
problem. The charge is for the entire ride, not per person.

Hi,
I've got my app all set up and I'm ready to go.
Can someone please explain to me what happens, or what I need to do, at the end
of the ride to make the payment? How can I add a tip?
If my wife and I take the ride, the price is for the ride, and not per person,
right?
If I'm travelling alone with my guide dog, I'm wondering if anyone has run into
problems with this, or what is the best way to let the driver know ahead of
time.
Thanks in advance. Keith
