A spokesperson for Deliveroo stated: ‘Road safety is of maximum significance to us, and we perform a zero-tolerance policy towards any riders who are observed to have broken the law. ‘As part of our commitment to avenue protection, we make hyper seen package – designed to make sure riders can be visible using all avenue users – available to every rider free of price. Free helmets are also available to all cyclists.

‘We would ask people to share any lawsuits with us so that wherever possible, we can use our generation to pick out whether a Deliveroo rider was concerned in an incident and take movement.’ An Uber Eats spokeswoman said: ‘The safety of clients, couriers, and most people is top precedence for Uber Eats.
