What Causes Delivery Truck Accidents?
Accidents involving FedEx trucks and other commercial vehicles can lead to severe and even fatal consequences for fellow motorists. There are many reasons why FedEx truck accidents occur. Some common causes include:
- Distracted driving: Texting, talking on the phone, eating and drinking, and other activities that distract drivers from the road can result in delivery truck accidents.
- Improper maintenance: When FedEx trucks aren’t properly maintained, this can result in all types of issues that increase the risk of accidents, from equipment failures to worn-out brake pads.
- Improper loading techniques: When FedEx employees or delivery drivers fail to properly load cargo, this can lead to accidents with fellow motorists on the road.
- Fatigued or drowsy driving: Many delivery truck drivers work long hours and alternative schedules, resulting in fatigue. Operating a commercial vehicle while drowsy can increase the risk of accidents.
- Hazardous road conditions: From severe weather to unsafe roads, unsafe weather or road conditions can pose a dangerous risk to FedEx truck drivers, obscuring the driver’s vision and delaying their reaction time.
Proving Liability in a FedEx Truck Accident
Establishing liability or legal responsibility in a FedEx truck accident lawsuit is critical to recovering compensation for medical expenses, lost earnings, property damage, and other damages. Proving negligence is often the most challenging part of winning your case, making it essential to secure experienced representation from a qualified attorney.
The process of determining liability is hinged on various factors and legal complexities, requiring thorough investigation and compelling evidence. Our seasoned lawyers can help you fortify your case with sufficient evidence and negotiate effectively with your opponents to identify all liable parties and ensure you’re compensated fairly.
Common liable parties in FedEx truck accidents include:
- The FedEx driver: If the delivery truck driver was distracted, fatigued, or not following traffic laws, they may be held liable for the accident.
- The FedEx company: The FedEx corporation may be liable for damages if it failed to properly maintain its commercial vehicles or encouraged unsafe driving practices to meet delivery deadlines.
- The maintenance companies: If a third-party company was responsible for maintaining the FedEx truck and failed to do so, they may be liable for resulting injuries.
- The manufacturers: If a defect in the FedEx truck caused the accident, the manufacturer of the truck can be liable for damages.
Our Maryland lawyers can thoroughly investigate your claim and analyze critical evidence—such as interviewing witnesses, accessing videos or security camera footage of the accident, and setting up expert testimonies—to build you the strongest case possible, maximizing your chance of obtaining a favorable outcome.
