The sponsor's argument
With the proliferation of online tech companies like Grub Hub, Door Dash, and Uber Eats dominating the food delivery business in New York City, there are more delivery couriers on the streets than ever before. This vast increase in deliveries coupled with consumer demand to get food delivered as fast as possible, presents additional safety chal- lenges for pedestrians, cyclists, and motorists alike. This bill will help address safety concerns by requiring the delivery app companies, such as Door Dash and Grub Hub to maintain "no fault" insurance coverage for people providing food deliveries on their behalf modeled on the State's requirements for insurance for cars and other vehicles. This bill places the onus of responsibility on the online tech companies, who are driving and profiting from this delivery culture and is intended to incentivize them to prioritize safety for workers and pedestrians rather than deliveries being provided at unsafe speeds.
This is the sponsor's own case for the bill, quoted from their memorandum. It is not Agora's description of what the bill does.
