What should drivers do when they see a guide dog in training or a blind person using a dog?
We encourage you to be attentive, as you would with other pedestrians, especially when turning right-on-red. We try to train our dogs in real-world situations, so it’s helpful that you continue going on about your business. Please don’t stop and honk, yell out your window, or otherwise distract a blind person using a dog. The person is listening for traffic flow to determine when it is safe to give the command to go forward and cross the street.
