A man who is legally registered blind was turned away from a taxi ride after the driver claimed to be 'allergic' to his guide dog.
Elliott Ainley, from Hull, hailed a taxi outside the city's Paragon Station to travel home with his guide dog, Legend, following bus disruptions - but was refused entry at the door.
The Hackney Carriage driver claimed he was 'allergic' to the service dog but was unable to provide an exemption certificate proving this, a legal requirement to deny guide dogs access, reports HullLive.
