@SnowyCA This is completely baseless, but I often wonder if there's a correlation between accident rates and the rise of labour-exploitative delivery services. Is it possible higher insurance rates are an Amazon / Door Dash tax?

@zazzoo
Good point--that could be a contributing factor especially since their company CEOs push the time-sensitive aspect of deliveries.
edit: Except, why the large and abrupt jump in the first 6 weeks of this year?
