Righto brains trust, does anyone know how to contact Uber/Uber Eats to discuss a traffic accident with one of their delivery riders? My daughter was travelling home from work on Friday night and got hit by one when he decided to cut in front of her and go right from the bike lane as she was turning left into a main road on a green arrow. She has a witness who saw it all but thats not the issue. The guy only gave a name, address phone number when my daughter called the police when he initially refused and they instructed him to exchange details whilst on speaker phone.
These menace on our roads have no id on them, no identification plates on their e-bikes and they get away with doing damage.
She called me as she was frightened and I rushed there as they were exchanging numbers.
Surely they are employed by Uber as either casuals or contractors, they must give details of their employer. Surely they are covered by insurance by Uber?
We have looked online on how to contact them, good luck with that. Can anyone offer any tips?

The biggest battle of the world cup may be between the organisers and the England supporters and their chants and antics. :D

Just to dot point the way the game has gone, we are seeing drinks breaks sponsored by x in both halves.

In the australia vs Turkey game it was a balmy 20 degrees in Canada.  

Hardly a heat rule situation.

You could argue fairness as a reason behind it, but the cynic in me says its about money and nothing more.

A lot depends which GWS team turns up.
If it's the one that played the Saints, we're a chance. :D
If it's the one that played Brisbane, we're cactus. ::)
They're a good side, not a superside and inconsistent. Very beatable. 50-50, no more than that. Only time in any half recent memory where we won 5 straight is in 2023 in a run of 10. We don't normally do 4 straight, helped we played Essendon, let alone 5 straight. If we do then we may have the right attitude for a change that carries us through the season like 2023. Now that big question......IF!
