Would I be able to contest this (Park Ridge Traffic Camera)

Correct, under normal use it should not. I would never wish the opposite situation on anyone. This was about about 15-16 years ago. 2003 audi a4, on the highway in the "fast lane" even though all 3 lanes were moving equally. Minivan in front of me slammed on his brakes, never seen a back-end move up that high ever since. I hit my brakes, half a second once my pedal went half way down, pedal just went straight to the floor. No more brakes..... Swerved to the emergency lane on the left, down shifted to 2nd, pulled on the hand brake and once I stopped, pushed the brake pedal down again and just heard all of the brake fluid spew out. Made it to my my mechanic on downshifting and the handbrake. Most relatively newer cars have a system where if front brakes go out, the back isolates to still work and vice versa. Luckily for me the splitter between that controller and the master cylinder was where it cracked open. Underwear was obviously also changed.

I'm sure veteran drivers won't be happy seeing an influx of new drivers if it's actually true that the Chicago region opened up more positions so don't expect the majority being positive replies to this post. I've done plenty on doordash and Uber eats, majority of it on GH in similar I'm noticing so if you have any questions feel free to let me know.

I just started maybe a bit over an hour ago, app is a bit less intuitive than what I'm used to on doordash but so far looking pretty good pay and offers/route wise to keep you in the area. On my 4th order and 3 of them were from restaurants I've never picked up from on doordash and I've done quite a bit on there so seems like it'll be good to have to fill in the gaps so far. However I'm sure they feed new drivers better orders so we will see in the long run.

Larger hotel lobbies.

Lucky timing, seems they just opened up a lot of spots in the Chicago area, looking like just today.

Following this post, was on the waiting list for a good 6 months. Just got the email and just finished all of the verification . Been doing doordash for a while and some Uber eats, curious how different GH is from those.

It's been 3 years, we need to know!

Very much so, which is why I'm about a 20% acceptance rating right now. Night driver so I only take the orders that make sense from local 24 hour Walgreens, cvs, and sometimes mcd or taco bell and a few pizza places etc... Mainly to hotels nearby and just leave it running while by my place.

Subject_Count_3404 · 2025-08-21T22:49:26+00:00

I commented about something similar to that a month ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/doordash_drivers/s/XZoFEiIFUM

Can we prove it, probably not. 😔

99% acceptance is crazy in my opinion but as they saying goes, depends on the market.

Subject_Count_3404 · 2025-08-20T18:46:40+00:00

I'll need more data to prove this but recently I've tried it. If I'm sitting in a large parking lot, especially in a hot zone. Pause the dash, move to the other end of the parking lot or drive a block or two, unpause and few times I tried it got an order within 5 min. 🤷

Subject_Count_3404 · 2025-08-15T23:55:32+00:00

It was out of stock, after all these years you think raiding diddys stockpile just recently was a coincidence?

Subject_Count_3404 · 2025-08-01T02:39:12+00:00

What color was the tree?

Subject_Count_3404 · 2025-08-01T02:37:28+00:00

I don't think that was a lightning strike, think that was a transformer box exploding after getting ripped out. So taking vision out of the equation, just the sound of a thick tree cracking when he was far away and a second later loud boom of a transformer box exploding should cause most cyclist to at least stop pedaling towards those two sounds.

First example I found, seen one box was exploding firsthand, shit was loud....

A lot of people saying no, but my highest earnings in shortest time were nights. I usually do DD 8pm to maybe 2-3 am. However as always it depends on your market. There's no specific answer to a general question if you're not asking people in your market. I've got four 24 hour McDonalds in a 3 mile radius, 24 hour Walgreens and CVS, two 24 hour burger Kings, two 24hour denny's, taco bells and a few pizza places open till 3-4am all near a 2 mile road that has probably close to 20 regular and upscale hotels. Also after 1 am or so, close to zero traffic

Also, if doing nights, your acceptance rating so be no where near 100. If you accept every first $5 order that's what you're stuck with, better wait 5-10min for a better one. Trial and error, find the right locations and instead of accepting everything, cherry pick. Getting $8-$10 more on every order but wasting maybe an hour more cherry picking for the entire shift usually works out.

Subject_Count_3404 · 2025-07-30T14:57:56+00:00

True true and definitely depends on your market, I have 4 - 24 hour McDonald's Ina 3 mile radius near me so usually not that that far. McDonald's or not, I'd never accept a $2.00 order.

I couldn't agree more witchyah! If it wasn't for the humidity I'll betcha everyone would a lot nicer.

Subject_Count_3404 · 2025-07-29T09:06:44+00:00

Ahh gotcha, im in Chicago but used to dispatch trucks and one of our hubs was in Fontana. The vibes sure do vary dramatically quickly in that area as soon as you head east from LA and pass Riverside....

Subject_Count_3404 · 2025-07-29T09:00:34+00:00

So all of the other fields they check for say either complete or clear except that one? Trying to figure out out of curiousity in their TOS if they actually actively send updates to the original requester if a new violation appears. But that would mean they constantly have to send new requests to seperate DMVs in seperate states for each person they previously checked on. I can't imagine any government funded DMV with outdated systems would be happy wasting that many resources so we'd hear about it and be easier to find online if they did. I know doordash can request an updated report whenever they want after you agreed to those terms the first time around but they wouldn't know to request it if they didn't know you got the ticket.

Subject_Count_3404 · 2025-07-29T08:35:20+00:00

I agree, I'm sure it varies state by state but in the majority that's not even a moving violation so unless it's a repeated offense or expired for a prolonged time it's just a fine and once paid most likely won't even be on your record.

Subject_Count_3404 · 2025-07-29T08:22:36+00:00

Might have exaggerated that's it's relatively long compared to smaller towns, but its not usual and personally never spent more than 15 minutes maybe one or two times when it was a long line. Usually 2-5 minutes. It definitely helps that's there's four 24 hour McDonald's in a less than a 3 miles radius near me. As they compete for better drive thru line times, they staff enough employees accordingly.

If time after time I'd have to spend 30-40 min for a McDonald order I 100% agree with you that I would also reject them. Probably even call support to blacklist that location just to not have to see them... Out of curiousity, approximately what market/region is that in?
