I think there’s probably more than there used to be because there’s more variety but everyone in this thread should remember that food delivery isn’t anything new. The difference now is it’s been decoupled from the restaurants. I don’t know if the pay is any better or worse than it used to be for food delivery people. I imagine it’s always sucked.
Anyway the trend I’ve seen around is e-bikes, so I don’t know that more journeys means much if they aren’t using ICE vehicles.
Sadly in the UK we don’t have a huge amount of e bike adoption. Most landlords won’t allow tenants to charge them at home due to the percieved fire risk. So every delivery driver is riding a petrol scooter.
In China basically every bike except a hog or a superbike is electric.
