Sometimes the app says my delivery person is on a bike and they pull up in a car. Is it just easier, as a deliverista, to list a bicycle rather than register your car? Or are they trying to get more tips since they're on a bike?

I've often had food delivered by someone else different than what the app shows. Is this an app glitch or are people gaming the system somehow?

Do any of these apps provide "onboarding" that explains rules/laws of the roads, best practices, etc?

brief onboarding, really nothing detailed. it's a shame.

and drivers make themselves as cyclists for more earnings. i've switched to a car before and i haven't made as much money.

i work on dd as a car, but do this job with an ebike. dd doesn't really have a lucrative ebike option like uber eats has. i get around faster either way so it doesn't matter to me.
