FedEx truck drivers are under a lot of pressure to deliver packages as quickly as possible. A driver’s best intentions of trying to get the job done quickly can result in negligent and careless actions, causing a serious accident. If you or a loved one has been involved in a Connecticut FedEx truck collision, you may be eligible to recover compensation for losses incurred in the crash, including current and future medical expenses, lost wages, physical pain and emotional anguish.

All About FedEx Accidents

FedEx began operations in April 1973. The company currently employs more than 140,000 employees worldwide and spans across more than 220 countries and territories. According to the company’s website, there are approximately 43,000 FedEx trucks around the world and more than 2.7 million miles are driven in the United States each day.

From business packages to certified documents, Connecticut residents depend on FedEx deliveries for a variety of different reasons. When traveling the roads and streets of Connecticut, drivers will often pass a number of FedEx vehicles, especially in larger cities like New Haven, Bridgeport and Hartford. Drivers are trained to avoid any type of unsafe driving situation and are urged to adhere to the safety principles outlined by the company. Despite the company’s best efforts, Connecticut FedEx truck accidents, unfortunately, are not uncommon.

Causes Of FedEx Truck Accidents

Similar to any other type of motor vehicle accident, FedEx truck collisions could be a result of either human error or outside forces. Some of the most common human errors that contribute to FedEx delivery truck accidents include:

  • Maintenance crews failing to complete repairs or safety checks
  • Fatigued drivers
  • Drivers who are operating their vehicles under the influence of drugs or alcohol
  • Inadequate training
  • Failure to obey traffic laws
  • Drivers backing up the FedEx truck after passing the desired delivery address
  • Failure of truck drivers to yield when merging back into traffic
  • A driver who fails to set the truck’s parking brakes when stopping to make a delivery

Since FedEx trucks are much larger in size than the average passenger vehicle, this type of accident can be especially damaging. Not only can a crash cause the total loss of your car, but injuries from the accident can be much more serious than the average car accident.

Sometimes, outside forces can cause a FedEx accident. These factors can include:

  • Vehicle equipment failure
  • Poorly or improperly secured cargo
  • Poor road or weather conditions
