This means that riders must get themselves to and from the curb for pickups and drop offs. Drivers do not enter riders’ homes under any circumstances. Each rider shall have an opportunity to voluntarily contribute towards the cost of service. Under no circumstances will a rider be denied services by the Baca Area Transportation because of a decision to not contribute for services rendered.
