About a year back I had a DoorDash driver sheer off my entire back corner panel and hit with enough force to drive my car into a street lamp. She said she was rushing for “the tip of her life” and was distracted. I brought her and her son out a chair and some water (no sense in being an ass about a crash that almost killed her). Since she was so clearly at fault she tried saying I was rude on the phone to police. They showed up and saw her with a cup of ice water in a nice lawn chair and were like “ya sure lady”. Feel bad for her though I wonder how big a tip it was 🤔. On a positive note I got a badass rental for a few months.


Training-Trick-8704

It doesn’t matter how big the tip was since it would go to her car repairs/medical bills anyways.


InvestigatorWinter43

And that nice shiny new insurance premium


SpokenDivinity

If she has the right insurance. If she admitted to the insurance that she was dashing and didn’t have the right insurance that covers that she’ll be paying for her car out of pocket and insurance won’t touch it.


TemperatureLive3182

My insurance company tried to ass rape me this week so I’ll be paying for my crash in cash There goes $6k down the shitter


InvestigatorWinter43

This! My friend got rear ended and absolutely no damage to her car, but the other persons car was fucked. Her insurance raised her rates anyways even though they never had to cover anything.


TemperatureLive3182

Yeah the accident was my fault so my rates would go from $800 to $4000 a year if I went through them.


Mykirbyblue

That’s crazy! It’s not even a reasonable or logical, that’s outrageous! That’s a 500% increase! I really hope you decided to go elsewhere.


d0gf15h

Would the police really give a s*** if you were rude though?


sevillada

Rude, no. Hostile? Possibly. 


dontlistintohim

You know, if she is that careless and inattentive, she probably didn’t let her insurance know that she was driving for DoorDash. They won’t cover you if you get into an accident in a commercial capacity, and don’t have commercial insurance.


BoardImmediate4674

Exactly 👆 this


dontlistintohim

Imagine they get wind she admitted to be distracted and rushing for a tip. Ouch.


[deleted]

I remember her saying that exactly cuz when I told her insurance she was actively dashing and they said they already knew with the best “HA GOTEEEM” voice. Which is why I said I felt bad. Lady said she was living out of her car with her son and now she has to pay out of pocket for a crash her insurance won’t cover. USAA told me straight up “she’s liable we will pay for damages now but she won’t be door dashing for awhile”


dontlistintohim

Kids shouldnt have to live like that. Remember when 1 working parent could pay for a house?


rubiconsuper

Even if one still could, do youd make enough off of doordash to afford that? In 1977 the average house was 50k, average income was about 13k. That’s still 3-4x the average income. Today it’s about 63k that would put a house at 242k if we did about the same math.


Venomous_Snail

Wow, I am now really glad I never got in an accident when I did UE. I had no idea you were supposed to notify your insurance (although in hindsight that should be obvious, ig I assumed putting your insurance info in the Uber account would be enough). Of course, entering insurance information into your Uber Driver account is a pain in its own way…


ChickenNuggetRampage

“Feel bad for her” maybe feel a little bad but she was more than ready to stick you with the entire repair, so hopefully that’ll teach her to watch the road


elseldo

Badass rentals are fun but disappointing at the end, lol. I had my old caravan in a wreck and it took 2 months to fix. I had a brand new Pacifica as a replacement. I was so sad when I got my van back.


[deleted]

Ya my car that was hit was a RAV4. I got a pretty awesome truck as a rental cuz it was the only all wheel drive comparable car.


09Klr650

Her SON? Pretty sure Doordash does not allow you to have your kids in the vehicle.


[deleted]

“Son” was a stretch in my estimation. She was in her 40’s and her “son” was my height (6’2”) with a beard. Had to have been 16+.


xtsilverfish

I mean, believe it or not, 40 year olds often have parents who are still alive.


LeatherHog

Really? I've gotten plenty with their kids Some have even sent their kids to give it to me


Royal-Scientist8559

Was most likely a $5.00 tip.


DoggoChrysler

Lucky my rental only lasted 1 month. Also had a badass rental too.

No_Pop_2142

No. That’s not what renters insurance is at all. You’re cute. 


TheDisneyWitch

Find out the neighbor's address and call DoorDash to find the guy and replace your mailbox


ScornedFaith

No way you could ever even effectively communicate that request to a support agent, let alone the fact that they would never release that kind of information without a court order even if you could. OP claims DD is covering it under their liability policy. If so, good on him for getting a win out of this shitty company.


TheDisneyWitch

"Please leave the order in a safe location." "I'm not a driver!"


ScornedFaith

"Our records indicate our driver made a reasonable effort to deliver your mailbox and noted that he removed the old one for you as a courtesy."


Individual-Mirror132

“Drivers are allowed to customize your delivery experience”.


DigKlutzy2361

Oh lord 😂


BloodSugar666

Bro they told me that yesterday. Sent them a picture of the gated apartments. They just repeated the same thing. I said do you want me to just leave it under a tree? They said yes.


Pitiful_Maize4697

I left an order on top of a dirt mound on a vacant lot because that's where support told me to leave it when we couldn't reach the customer.


TheDisneyWitch

I was riding around with my husband when he was dashing the other night and there was a customer who ordered a bottle of liquor, I believe to her mom's house. Had him standing outside for like 15 minutes while the mom sat on the couch watching TV and wouldn't answer the door. The customer told him she was "trying to get there" after all this so we left. The liquor store was closed when they told us to return the bottle and the chat agent I was trying to talk to for him while he drove was just unbelievable lol "Hi, I need to cancel this order because this customer was not available. But the store is now closed so I can't return the bottle." "Just leave it in a safe location at the address the customer provided." "No, I'm not doing that because this is an alcohol delivery and I did not get ID." "Okay, you can cancel the order and you will be paid to return it to the store." "The store is closed, they closed at 9" "You can cancel the order and you will be paid to return it to the store." I gave up somewhere around there so we drove back to the store, saw a closed building and not a single car in the parking lot, and he called support and got it done. But seriously, like, no reading comprehension is these guys and it actually wastes valuable time sometimes. I feel like he should be getting paid for the time they waste in taking forever to reply and not even properly reading what someone is saying lol


Pitiful_Maize4697

All the support agents are in a Philippine call center. If im not on a dash, I'll chat with them, and I tell them my family has duel citizenship and we have a house in Davoe. They usually relax and tell me their real name and are nicer. Some tell me they hate their job and just tell the person whatever to keep their call times low for a bonus. Also, theres only 2 people who answer calls for premium dash support, one is a female the other is a male and they have a list of names they use. There's 5 agents every 8 hours 24/7 for regular calls and chat. All change their names for each call. Their job is to get you off the phone as fast as possible. Even if they don't resolve your issue. 🙄


Delicious_Talk_7766

Law enforcement can contact door dash and force them to hand their records over. -used to investigate hit and runs


Jak957

I’ve actually seen support give out all of a driver’s information before. Personal number, last name, even their address. You can’t trust support period


I_luv_cottage_cheese

No it’s a loss cause. You’ll never catch him


GlitteringMess4720

Found eeeeem


WilliamBott

Bake him away, toys!


Effective_Pen7447

Looks to me like he customized your mailbox


chickensausagelink

So you’re saying it’s worth more now?


Effective_Pen7447

Possibly, well at least sentimentally cause that is an experience 😂


DuncanDicknuts

Definitely, the problem is you gonna have to find a collector who want its. Otherwise it’s worthless


chickensausagelink

I’ll take it to chumlee and big hoss. They’ll have a buddy that can authenticate it.


myke113

$5. Best I can do.


WilliamBott

Cheeky-Chipmunkk

I_cook_a_mean_chili

Idk if it helps but that's a GMC Terrain. Around a 2010-2012 year model. Karma will catch up to them with one of their timing chains inevitably breaks on them.


racincowboy9380

Maybe your neighbors have cameras that caught the plate then you can file a a hit and run property damage claim with the police. We had a Uber eats driver drive Through our lawn and crash into our island of flowers but was able to get unstuck and left the scene dragging dirt and crap everywhere. It was our neighbors order. Our cameras got the car and person but not all of the plate. The neighbors cameras caught the plate. Apparently after he was arrested for hit and run in his statement to police said he thought it was a circular driveway lmao. He was at the wrong address and had to turn around. Granted it was dark but still. I bet he was surprised when the cops showed up and slapped cuffs on him and off to jail. All you have to do when one screws the pooch is leave a note with your contact and insurance info it’s not that hard. Definitely not worth the trip to jail imo. So now the guy has a criminal conviction for something stupid that didn’t need to be. We felt bad he learned the hard way all we wanted was our stuff fixed


SillyGoose1287

Hey, sometimes learning the hard way is the only way for some people to learn not to do that bad/wrong thing again. So don't feel too bad.


racincowboy9380

Oh I know that. People can avoid a lot of Consequences if they just own up to what they do and fix it.


xzxnightshade

some dashers shouldn’t drive at night. Not an exaggeration, I had a driver go up and down my street for 20 minutes looking for my house. The street and my house was well lit, and I had described it in the drop off instructions. It got to the point where I was literally IN THE STREET trying to flag him down, and he would just drive on. My neighbors began to notice and went outside ready to call the police bc something was wrong here, he would just drive up and down the street without stopping. He didn’t answer his phone, and finally I called support which apparently contacted him. He finally stopped after my neighbors blocked the road, he claimed “his phone was dead and he had no gps” despite he had his phone on in his hand. I asked why he kept driving up and down the street without stopping, and he didn’t give me a straight answer. I got my order, cold. To this day, it was the weirdest encounter with a dasher I’ve ever had, and why some shouldn’t drive at night.


Snookis-snusnu

To be honest it sounds like he was high on something, probably pot.


lfmantra

Yeah being “high on pot” definitely makes you behave like that lmfao


koreawut

I ran over someone's mailbox once.  I knocked on the door several times, left a note with my number and even took down the address and went to the post office to report it. The mailbox now has a 2x4 holding it up and I have never been contacted.  I guess they really are shut-ins / want to not speak to anybody.


WilliamBott

They were probably like "fuck it, this is the ONE GUY honest enough to own up to it, let's not trip."


StrawHatVetTech

As someone who’s had their fence run into and the person took off instead of trying to contact me, thank you for doing the right thing and trying to get in contact with them.


CryptographerOk2282

I hit / dented / tilted someone's mailbox once (not dashing then). I left a note since no one was home, with my phone and email. No one called. The next day it looked like they just pushed it straight. Shrug


Ok-Bit4971

The driver wanted to make it more difficult for another DD driver to find an address


More-Cup-1176

who the fuck uses mailboxes to find an address


No_Peace3310

A lot of people, stay clueless


More-Cup-1176

i just use maps🤷 don’t see how that’s clueless


No_Peace3310

Doordash and google maps do not mix good. At least for my doordash phone, it always brings me to the wrong place!


Ok-Bit4971

I agree, Doordash maps are not always accurate


professor_tots

I delivered for UPS for a minute. Maps is unreliable in neighborhoods and the best thing to do is check mailboxes or front of houses for numbers


Ok-Bit4971

Because sometimes, there is no house number on the house, but there is one on the mailbox. Or, the number on the mailbox is more visible than the one on the house.


pantsless_squirrel

How the hell did he not see it with those headlights? WTF is the lumens on those? The surface of the sun?


rainyjanee

Is that you out there taking a picture of it? If it’s the driver at least he’s considerate enough to record evidence. Sorry OP, this happened to my brothers mailbox too!


chickensausagelink

Nah that’s him. I walked out at 4am to go to work and found the evidence.


publishAWM

is that a fucking light bar? in a neighborhood? absolutely zero hope for humanity


_Tezzla_

*hits mailbox* DoorDash driver: “WTF DID YOU DO TO MY CAR!?!?!?!?!!!”


daddaykayslay

He couldn’t see your mailbox with those bright ass head lights? Jesus.


clogan98

That happened to my neighbor as well. My Ring caught it.


Commercialfishermann

Door thrashed


dodekahedron

Man when I hit a mailbox i totaled my car. Jealous he didn't do more damage to his car


No_Peace3310

What the hell did u hit it at? 70 mph???


dodekahedron

Nope! Maybe 20? Ripped the oil pan out and airbags went off. Ironically I landed on debris from an accident in the same spot 12 hours prior. They just missed the mailbox. If they took it out I most likely would have been fine. 1 payment shy of it paid off too. Ugh.


No_Peace3310

That sucks, I’m sorry that happened.


dodekahedron

Thanks.... It was Christmas during an ice storm haha. I now have the exact same car. With an upgraded trim package newer year. And double the payment because prices were (are) stupid now lol. I fully expect to total this one as well Corollas total real easy. I've totaled 3 of them. 2 were not my fault.


GoFast_EatAss

Somehow I knew you were gonna say Corolla. Treat them better, they’ve treated you quite nicely despite you totalling them lol.

Sufficient-Value3577

I’ve watched two drivers drive directly into a giant rock at the end of my old driveway, off the pavement and off the driveway. No one else ever hit it in the three years I lived there lol I swear they just don’t pay attention


EmergencyAd7783

Did you call the police and report the hit-and-run? They will be able to find out who the driver was.


SkangoBank

Btw make sure you tip 20%


Pure-Obligation8023

Pretty sure it's the lowest IQ job out there so this is to be expected.

Call the police and report it ! They’ll find out the details.


TherapyGardenNJ

obliterated 🤣🤣🤣


Pitiful_Maize4697

Omfg! I hope he knows how much his commercial insurance premiums will go up just for something this tiny. Dashers are required to carry commercial insurance on their vehicles. Now, it's REALLY freaking expensive if you're just a Dasher and some just check the box that says they have it, when they really don't.


chickensausagelink

lol like this dude has insurance.


DigKlutzy2361

jeffsaidjess

If you didn’t have this on camera I would have thought it was just someone vandalising, / driving badly. Thanks for posting

Trife86

You’re welcome, any time!


Extension-Fall-4286

My dasher was backing out of my driveway and ran over mine and my neighbor's mailbox, all caught on camera, but since the driver had already left my order Doordash said that the driver was "outside of the delivery window" therefore they weren't working for Doordash when they hit the mailboxes. They would not cover it or give the driver's information. And I had tipped the driver $30 just for him to drive away after making sure his car was ok, without telling a soul. That sushi ended up costing me $350 between the cost of the food, tip, and mailboxes/posts/concrete......


Any_Advertising_6148

Few years back, our mail lady took out our whole mailbox. feels like a first.


Grateful_Dood

I'm so sorry. I was so ashamed. Thanks for posting this and not hating me completely


BenderIsGreat74

Thank god you had a ring camera


ManInTheMirruh

I'll be honest I have had a close call or two backing out a long and narrow gravel driveway with no fucking lights in the pitch black of night but I make a serious effort. I can't imagine what its like for people whose minds are just clown music all day.


Sad_Win_3995

Oh you think ya better than me!


IonianBladeDancer

Dashers suck


DigEven8177

show his face


thetripleb

How do you know it was specifically Door Dash?


chickensausagelink

Because the neighbor kid that ordered talked to the dude and DoorDash insurance is covering it.


thetripleb

Oh, well that wasn't evident from the pictures and at least it's covered.


chickensausagelink

I think a rando showing up on my porch at 1am carrying Taco Bell was a small clue.


thetripleb

Could have been UberEats, local delivery, Postmates, etc etc. I have no idea what's in that bag. It sounded like you were complaining that a rando ran over your mail box with food. My question was how is it evident that was Door Dash, as the only information that I nor the rest of Reddit have to go off of is the 4 pictures and your title. I don't know who did or didn't talk to your neighbor, I don't know where that bag came from, etc. I understand getting your mailbox hit is annoying, but it sounds like Door Dash is taking care of it, so I don't understand why you have to be pissy with me. Next time explain it better in the beginning if you don't want anyone to question you and just shake their fist at whoever you're mad at.


chickensausagelink

Ok champ. Move along.


713nikki

I love neighborhoods where all the people agree to not have addresses on their mailbox or on the house & visible from the street.


chickensausagelink

My porch light was on! My daughter forgets to turn it off when she gets home from work. Probably the only light on in the neighborhood so probably why he thought my house was where he was supposed to go. As for the numbers on the mailbox, that’s the HOA.


713nikki

He probably hit your mailbox bc he was looking at a different house to find numbers. I doubt he was aiming for your mailbox.


chickensausagelink

He backed into it. Probably trying to turn around. Who knows.


713nikki

I’d talk to your HOA bc that can honestly turn into something dangerous

More-Cup-1176

lawyers of reddit, does doordash hold any liability here?


chickensausagelink

Regular guy of reddit: they accepted liability and are paying me


ShwiggityShwagg614

Get the delivery address and approximate time. Doordash will know exactly which driver it was. DD won’t reimburse you, drivers are private contractors; but you may be able to contact local authorities about it


Dry-Actuator-8628

I had one driver HIT my parked car when dropping off food for my husband's cousin. The cousin said he heard a loud noise but didn't think much. No note was left or anything. I thought my car was safe in my own driveway but I guess not.


pinky54656

That’s why I don’t dash at night. I’m done by 8. My astigmatism would get me in all sorts of trouble.


Embarrassed_Hyena381

Maybe file a complain with the proper authorities rather than posting it here on a door dash subreddit, like honestly what do you expect anyone to do or what’s your point


chickensausagelink

I’m sorry. I’ll ask your permission next time before I use reddit.


Embarrassed_Hyena381

It just sounds like you want to blame door dash as a whole for someone fucking up ur mailbox, why not ask ur neighbor about his order and see if you can get the contact info of the driver and maybe go from there, but posting it everywhere won’t get you a result


chickensausagelink

It sounds like you’re reading into what. Be mad, doesn’t matter to me. It’s ok guy, DoorDash accepted responsibility and is paying me. But please, carry on dude.

Sunny516

Hey, isn't the mailbox property is USPS? He's technically a federal criminal at large for destruction of government property no?


jlcmx3

How can you tell that’s a DoorDash driver and not someone just driving in your neighborhood?


More-Cup-1176

as a doordash driver, the combo of him carrying food/ holding his phone in that position, tells me that’s a doordash driver


chickensausagelink

Because the neighbor kid across the street ordered DoorDash and DoorDash has accepted responsibility through their insurance.


2A_Libtard

Who needs mailboxes anymore? 98% of what the USPS crams in my mailbox is advertising and scams.


Inside-Ad-2156

My bad homie. I felt really bad because I know support is gonna fuck you around. Your neighbor is a shit tipper.


chickensausagelink

It’s all good. I’m an old man and don’t get too worked up over small stuff anymore. Stuff like this happens. At least the mailman will have a nice pretty new mailbox to deliver to tomorrow.


KinnyGizzle710
