Are Deliveroo liable?

[Deleted member 77746]

OP name checks out.

Watch out mods don’t like direct insults. I was temp banned for it.

OP Maybe you mate should have been looking where he was going. Unless he is blind?

Also was it a steep hill was the deliveroo bike rider going 90mph? Or just 1mph on a straight path?

OP been curious does this mean you going to try a hit n run scenario with deliveroo?

As above, remove "Deliveroo" from the equation.



Makes no odds who they were working for / what they were doing. Even if a normal cyclist hit you whilst walking on a pavement they'd be personally liable.

Was your "friend" hoping to bag a free takeaway?

So wrong.
I'd love for all my van drivers to be personally responsible. Would lower my fleet policy costs massively

Friend steps out of garden onto pavement to almost being hit (hard) by a Deliveroo ebike riding illegally on the pavement.

Would Deliveroo be liable for any consequences or would it be the individual rider?

Out of curiosity.

Maybe I guess, but keep in mind you don't know that it was a deliveroo driver* - he or she would need to contact them and make a complaint, they'll try and find out if someone was on a delivery around that time, in that area.

*just because they're carrying a deliveroo bag doesn't mean they're not picking up a job for uber eats, just eat or even commuting home/not on a job etc..

Same thing happened to me except it was a moped, and to add insult to injury going the wrong way on my one way street

I shouted at him and turned out he was stopping into my immediate neighbours with their dinner

The rider.

you don’t claim off Volkswagen Nestlé if a Polo hits you.

^Fixed.

What? If a DPD driver hits you do you not go through DPDs insurance?

Bikes shouldn't be on the pavement why should you have to lookout for them?

 

[swillsy]

No

Just in-case they are there. A car isn't supposed to be on the pavement either but accidents happen. What happens if there was a police chase, or a motorbike or a plane about to crash land.

What a bizarre world you live in..... so you check your supermarket food for things like salmonella "just in-case"

Your friend never got hit by a bike so why are you even bothering thinking and asking about it? Are you planning on doing a hit n run?

Are you the type to destroy someone's life by actions like this?

Glad you find it so funny. But what if it was your granny, or a visually impared person or a child.... Still find it funny?

Demanding that a visually impaired person looks out for pavement-bikes is quite ableist TBH @dLockers

- Which post?

Who do you think would be liable?

For almost but not quite hitting a disabled young granny?

I went back to the first page and I don't see anything about a Granny been almost but not quite hit.

I was stealth banned by Burnsy years ago [i.e. put on moderated then he just deleted everything I posted so I left ]

Anyway, it's all good now. The new school of mods are way better.
