The dots are a screen protector by themselves.
There could very well be a button that your screenreader can't see, you may
want to ask a sighted person. If you use Jaws you could try Convenient OCR on
that screen or window.

The following information is important
After the driver accepts a trip request, you can double-tap "contact driver".
Then you can either call the driver or send a text message.

I highly doubt we will see driverless cars out in the public as a every day

No worries, Keith, driverless cars have cameras, they'll be able to see you and
