Common Causes of Delivery Vehicle Accidents

Delivery vehicle accidents can occur for various reasons, many of which can be traced back to the negligence of the delivery driver or the company they work for. One common cause is reckless driving, including speeding, sudden lane changes, or failure to yield the right of way. In their haste to meet tight delivery deadlines, drivers often disregard traffic laws, putting other road users at risk.

Another prominent cause pertains to vehicle maintenance. Delivery companies are obliged to keep their fleets in good working order, but some fail to uphold this responsibility. This negligence can lead to equipment failure, which could result in severe accidents. Furthermore, poor training of drivers can also be a significant factor. Delivery companies must ensure their drivers are adequately trained to handle the specific vehicles they are assigned to and the unique challenges of delivery driving.

Here are some of the most common causes of delivery vehicle accidents:

  • Reckless driving
  • Poor vehicle maintenance
  • Inadequate driver training
  • Driver fatigue
  • Distracted driving
  • Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol
  • Inclement weather conditions
  • Defective vehicle parts
  • Unsafe roadways or traffic signals. 

At Metzger Wickersham, we have extensive experience handling a variety of delivery vehicle accidents. Our lawyers understand the complexities of these cases and can help you obtain justice.

Steps to Take Following a Delivery Vehicle Accident

In the aftermath of a delivery vehicle accident, taking appropriate steps can be crucial in building a strong case. It can significantly affect your ability to receive rightful compensation for the damages you've suffered. 

Here's what you need to do:

  • Ensure Safety: First and foremost, check your safety and those of others involved in the accident. If anyone is seriously injured, call for medical help immediately.
  • Report the Accident: Call the police to report the accident. The police report will serve as an official record, which can be crucial evidence for your claim.
  • Document the Scene: Use your phone to take photographs of the accident scene, including the positions of the vehicles involved, the damage done, any visible injuries, and any other relevant details. 
  • Collect Witness Information: Speak to anyone who witnessed the accident and take down their contact information. Their testimonials could prove valuable for your case.
  • Seek Medical Attention: Even if you don’t immediately feel injured, seeking medical attention is vital as some injuries may not be instantly apparent. This will also create official documentation of your injuries.
  • Notify Your Insurance Company: Inform your insurance company about the accident as soon as possible. 
  • Contact a Lawyer: Reach out to an experienced delivery vehicle accident attorney to help you navigate the legal process and advocate for your rights.
