Victorian woman Kathryn Beaton says repeated, illegal denials of service from drivers refusing to allow her guide dog into their vehicles have left her effectively housebound.

Doesn’t matter if someone has allergies
That sounds like bullshit, how can that not be a factor? How would, for example, a fear of dogs not be a factor?
I can absolutely understand having medically recognized allergies be an acceptable reason to refuse the service.
A fear of dogs doesn’t cut it for me. A fear of black people doesn’t mean you get to refuse service to them. A person has a right to have their service dog with them.
