Request a ride? Gimme a break....if someone got on my jumpseat and "requested" a ride I might deny it just on the principle that you don't request to do anything....Its a privilege not a right and you don't request it you very politely ask if you can hitch a ride if its alright with them. As for the medical you give them whatever they ask for. If they want to see your drivers license you give it to them. If they want to see your passport you give it to them, they have the final say.
