did you ask him to pull up the driveway?
What was he's alternative other than backing out?
Its a circular driveway.  And pull up in a driveway doesnt mean this

crazy story... You would think uber would have insurance for such a thing...  Then again my wife got her wig thrown out by a hotel employee and they refused to pay for it..

I'm not surprised Uber won't pay. Why should they? Their business model is built on the idea that the drivers are not employees and the cars are not theirs.

There is a line item in every insurance policy for "property damage". In NY you can fill out an accident report yourself and submit to DMV then request his insurance info and file a claim with his insurance. Uber requires that its drivers and cars be insured. Ask Uber for insurance info and call them too.
Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

A. Police report was filed
B. After many emails to uber they said they will send down an adjuster. I guess their service is a bit better then expected

Or their fear if being sued, did you say you filed a police report?
