No. That driver needs to resubmit the claim to the correct insurance.
From Your Fing Article:
WHAT UBER SAYS
Though most Uber drivers don’t carry commercial insurance, they’re required to have personal auto insurance to be a driver, said Uber spokesperson Susie Heath in an email.
More importantly, they’re covered by Uber’s commercial insurance policy when they drive for the app.
Uber rides are backed by $5 million to cover bodily injury and property damage, which is over double the requirement for taxis in London, Heath said.
“Riders, drivers and the community at large can rest assured knowing they are also covered by our commercial policy in addition to coverage maintained by the driver.”
Heath wouldn’t comment on Alam’s specific case, but said that “all UberX rides are insured with liability coverage. Our insurer reviews these claims and we’re committed to helping drivers understand the resolution process.”
So, the question is, why isn't he submitting the claim to the Uber commercial insurance company that he is covered by when driving passengers?
Um, Tawfiqul Alam should have been using Uber's commercial insurance policy that they offer, Aviva is apparently morons as they are dropping people for non commercial policies that are used in non commercial times (otherwise it is Uber covering the incident).
You haven't actually disagreed with me in a single point. Where do you show that Uber does not carry commercial policies as they state that they do? It seems you are just pointing out people doing what people do, which is do stupid shit.
If you drive your car in a commercial situation sometimes, and your car is covered with a commercial policy at those times, why should your personal insurance company drop you when your car is not being driven commercially? This makes no sense, the cars are not commercial vehicles, and are covered by commercial policies when they are being used for commercial purposes, so there is no issue with the personal policies except when someone apparently tries to use the wrong policy in the wrong situation.
I guess I need to reiterate, Uber carries commercial policies on their drivers:
There are no uninsured Uber cars carrying passengers, that is covered by a policy, and personal insurers dropping people off their policies is more of a sign of a misunderstanding than an issue with Uber.
Start working on changes in the local government. If there are no good candidates, run yourself. Local politics don't take as much time or money as federal, but can change things for the better. Also, the pay is pretty decent for the amount of work expected of you.
He didn't say it, it wasn't even a scientist but a writer who made that claim. Also, 1 data point does not make a pattern, there are many bee hives that are thriving while yours are having issues caused by (as you admit!) local circumstances.
What makes you think he sold the rights to his name? I am not privy to whatever agreement allowed McAfee security to retain the name after he left, are you an insider in that agreement? McAfee the person made no agreements with Intel when McAfee the company was sold to Intel as he was not involved at that time.
Did it? It seemed plausible to me. The Sun had a companion star, and they utilized it to build a Bowl of Heaven that could be used to travel the stars. The second book actually went into that they caused the Cretaceous disaster by returning with their "ship".
I am wondering where they were/are going with the destination system though, that sounds...weird.
Instead, you choose to support a sexist and racist woman? Or are you voting for Green or Libertarian and their incredibly short sighted and pandering platforms?
Yes, there is. Selective breeding is incredibly imprecise, and genetic engineering is much safer. With genetic engineering, you are editing exactly the gene you mean to, with selective breeding you get poisonous Lenape potatoes and other incredible failures of agriculture.
Anti-GMO is along the same lines as Anti-Vax. They are both bred of profound ignorance of the subject.
Frankly, if what AC is talking about really happened, APK would never be able to post again. I can only see this as a positive development for the future of Slashdot.
Actually, no, the server broke the federal records retention laws as well. Mostly because she did not turn over the records, and in fact tried to wipe a bunch of records that the FBI was able to retrieve.
To be fair, Rice didn't even use e-mail, and Powell is the reason State has modern email infrastructure; he made it a priority to get State into the information age.
To be fair, the judiciary has declared some things that Obama did to be unconstitutional and shot them down.
Recent ones I remember: Parts of the "Affordable Care Act" have been overturned by the Supreme Court. Executive Orders to change deportation of illegal immigrants were also overturned as unconstitutional overreach.
I am sure there were more, but that is all I have off the top of my head.
Columbus was looking for a route to India, as the world appeared to be spherical, it was not unreasonable to suspect that there would be a route to be found by travelling west.
Yes, while that is true, the common knowledge was that India was too far away, which is why Columbus had funding issues. If he had not run into America, his crew would have starved to death. Back then, they had a pretty good estimate of the circumference of the Earth, and knew that a trip in that direction to reach India was too far to make with the ships of the day.
Johnson and Stein have both said they would pardon Snowden, who is frankly just as bad as Hillary. Stein even said that she would put him on her cabinet...someone who committed treason on a President's cabinet...sounds like a GREAT idea. Johnson also said he will disband the IRS and the NSA...and the scary thing is, the President actually has this power as they are both Executive agencies.

Agreed, many of the posts coming from you fall into this category.

Brisket...why do you ask?
You may be trying to be funny, but you do realize that Uber does hold insurance on their drivers, don't you?

The lack of insurance argument was always bullshit, it was never an issue with Uber.
Bees are gone, we have about 4 years to live I understand Einstein said.

As if Northern state governments are more competent?
I am sure you see Detroit and Chicago as beacons of competent government? I am sure they have managed to eradicate all the corruption in those areas.
So, what you are saying is that it would be illegal for the police to check his pockets after arresting him? I think you might be a bit wrong here.
What makes you think he sold the rights to his name? I am not privy to whatever agreement allowed McAfee security to retain the name after he left, are you an insider in that agreement?

Yup.

I wouldn't be surprised to see 1100... arguing that Volcanos violate the laws of physics, so they will never work.

It looks like I have attracted the kraken yet again (from sibling replies to yours).
I have noticed certain all caps words trigger it, I even have trouble if I all cap "dns", which is a word that should be all capped.
Didn't the lunar modules land vertically? It isn't that much of an insurmountable problem...

Yes, there is. Selective breeding is incredibly imprecise, and genetic engineering is much safer. With genetic engineering, you are editing exactly the gene you mean to, with selective breeding you get poisonous Lenape potatoes and other incredible failures of agriculture.

How about failing a security audit dramatically?

Unfortunately, so far there isn't.
