Connecticut: Another Uber driver refuses to pick up blind woman ‘because of guide dog’

Neither the media nor Uber will say it, but the driver was more than likely Muslim. via Uber driver refuses to pick up blind woman ‘because of guide dog’ | Daily Mail Online.

A blind woman has spoken of her anger after an Uber taxi driver refused to pick her up apparently because she was with her guide dog.

Amy Dixon says she ordered a cab through the firm’s app in her home town of Darien in Connecticut on Tuesday.

But when she went to open the door, she claims the driver sped off, leaving her and her dog Elvis stranded.

She said: ‘I was flabbergasted. I’m screaming at him, waving my arms like crazy thinking maybe he made a mistake because I was hoping it wasn’t what I thought it was.’

But her fears were confirmed around ten seconds later when she received a text saying the driver had cancelled the pick up, it was reported by NBC New York.

Mrs Dixon, who lost her vision around seven years ago, managed to get another Uber car to take her home.

Uber said it had fired the driver.


Uber has a long and growing history of Muslim attacks and sexual assaults, and a war-on-women attitude in general, starting with their executives.
