Because instead of requiring better drivers, we've dumbed down everything to accommodate the people who should not drive, but can now sorta operate on our roads. This also increases our insurance costs. You can thank the government.
Insurance has the best data so if there was a group of drivers who were able to get in substantially less at fault accidents there rates would have remained low while others spiked.
That suggests that accidents are infrequent enough that “bad” drivers are able to hide amongst the good drivers or that “bad” drivers don’t exist in the lower insurance cost cohorts and don’t affect the rates.
It will be interesting as the safe driving discount APs proliferate if we start to see higher base rates and higher performance based discounts. If this occurs it will suggest that bad drivers were increasing good driver rates even within the same cohort
It is surprising how many people are willing to pay more for crappier food just to save themselves a short drive.
I only order from Uber and others when they give me a promo code that is 50% off or more and can be stacked with a BOGO deal or something else. At least with Uber their promos can't be used with pickup anymore.

Or save time.....you say short drive but ignore not having to also wait in line. If someone can save themselves 30 minutes and be more productive at work for example then why not?
To some people time is more important than the money spent for a delivery service. Why do we need to pretend your way is the only way? If someone feels they wanna spend 10 extra dollars to get their food delivered then who cares.
Not sure why people need to judge people's intentions when they don't know their situation.
If I'm working, I'll order lunch and the time saved driving and waiting in line is worth it to me for the extra 7 dollars.

Cause that’s half the point of the thread and it’s more entertaining this way. You might as well close the thread if you only want agreement and empathy.

I can hang out doing things I enjoy while somebody makes my food and then a guy picks it up and drops it off. It's not like I'm so lazy I'm sitting in a chair staring at the wall the whole time. I'm doing stuff. Heck, maybe I'm even relaxing. My favourite thing to spend money on is anything that gives me enjoyment, takes away stress, or adds to my free time. Skip is great.

It's great when you're alone with the kids too, if I'm feeling like not cooking I'm definitely not feeling like packing up my three goobers in to the car either.
