Can a cab-driver refuse to take blind passengers?

If this is an actual case then every effort
should be made to find the
driver responsible and get him/her reported.

This thread reads oddly because no-one has mentioned the cab driver's motive
for refusing. I don't know the details, but some or all disabled people have
some kind of card that gives them free or cheap cab travel. I don't know if
the driver is subsequently recompensed for his time and fuel by the Public
Carriage Office. Thus would be the real reason the driver refused - he is of
course breaking the rules, but you can see his reason.
