Common Causes of Truck Accidents in Virginia

Driver Fatigue & Hours-of-Service Violations 

Delivery drivers are often exempt from the strict hours-of-service regulations that apply to long-haul truckers. Because of these relaxed rules, delivery drivers can become exhausted after long shifts or feel pressure to complete many stops, increasing the risk of fatigue-related crashes. Fatigue impairs reaction time and judgment, making accidents more likely, especially in busy urban or residential settings where delivery routes are common.

Distracted or Impaired Driving

Delivery drivers face many distractions on the road, including interacting with GPS devices, communicating via phone or touch-free devices, eating, and adjusting music apps. These distractions divert their focus from driving, significantly increasing the chances of a crash. Impaired driving due to medication, alcohol or drug use, or extreme fatigue further elevates the risk of a serious accident.

Negligent Hiring & Training

Successfully operating large delivery vehicles in crowded cities and residential neighborhoods requires proper training and skill. Companies that hire drivers without adequate qualifications or that do not provide sufficient training create dangerous conditions. Negligent hiring and insufficient training are common causes of accidents when drivers are unprepared to handle the size of delivery trucks.

Mechanical Failures & Poor Maintenance 

Many delivery truck accidents result from mechanical failures such as brake defects, worn tires, steering issues, or other maintenance problems. When companies neglect proper inspections and safety maintenance, these defects can go unnoticed until they cause accidents. Proper vehicle upkeep is incredibly important, especially for commercial delivery trucks that endure frequent stops and heavy use.

Amazon Delivery Truck Accidents 

Increase in Amazon Trucks in Virginia

Virginia has seen a significant increase in the number of Amazon delivery trucks on its roads, due to there being more than 20 Amazon distribution, sorting, and delivery centers operating across the state, with more locations in development. This growth has unfortunately led to a rise in Amazon delivery truck accidents. 

Speeding to Meet Quota 

Amazon drivers frequently face intense pressure to meet strict delivery quotas, which may push them to speed or drive aggressively to complete their routes on time. The combination of tight schedules, high demands, and the complex logistics of last-mile delivery creates a higher risk of collisions.

Who Can Be Held Liable in an Amazon Delivery Accident?

Liability in Amazon delivery truck accidents can be complex and may involve multiple parties, including:

  • Amazon delivery drivers, whether employees or independent contractors
  • The Delivery Service Partner (DSP) companies that employ or contract with drivers
  • Amazon itself, especially if it exercises control over routes, training, or vehicle maintenance
  • Third-party vehicle maintenance providers or manufacturers if defective parts are involved
  • Cargo loaders or other third parties whose negligence contributed to the accident

Under the doctrine of respondeat superior, Amazon can be held responsible for the actions of its employees and, in some circumstances, contractors such as Amazon Flex drivers. This multi-party liability makes it necessary to have an experienced Amazon delivery truck accident attorney to identify all responsible parties and pursue the compensation you deserve.

UPS Truck Accidents 

UPS operates one of the largest delivery fleets in the country with around 134,000 vehicles and approximately 127,000 drivers who log more than 3.5 billion miles annually. Due to the sheer volume of miles traveled and high delivery demands, UPS truck accidents occur frequently on average nearly four times per day nationwide. These accidents often involve risks unique to delivery trucks, such as driving in residential areas with narrow streets, frequent stops, and stop-and-go traffic conditions. Additionally, the pressure on drivers to meet tight delivery schedules can contribute to fatigue and risky driving behaviors, increasing the likelihood of crashes.

Known Risks for UPS Truck Drivers

FedEx delivery truck accidents frequently arise due to a combination of:

  • Long-Haul Fatigue: Extended driving hours without sufficient rest lead to impaired focus and responsiveness.
  • Improper Training for Commercial Vehicles: Inadequate training prevents drivers from safely operating FedEx trucks, especially in complex driving environments.
  • Negligent Maintenance: Failures to maintain vehicles properly cause mechanical breakdowns that can trigger accidents.

Each of these factors alone or combined can result in serious injuries for victims of FedEx truck crashes.

How Liability is Determined in UPS Accidents

Liability for UPS truck accidents can come from multiple parties, including driver negligence, improper loading of cargo, vehicle maintenance failures, and the company’s responsibility to enforce safety protocols. An experienced UPS truck accident attorney can thoroughly investigate all these factors to hold every negligent party accountable and help victims secure the compensation they deserve.

FedEx Truck Accidents 

Common Causes for FedEx Accidents

Common causes of FedEx delivery truck accidents include long-haul fatigue, where extended driving periods without adequate rest impair a driver’s focus and reaction time. Inadequate commercial vehicle training is another factor, as untrained or undertrained drivers may struggle to safely navigate complex driving environments and heavy vehicles. Negligent maintenance of vehicles, such as failure to repair brake issues or worn tires, also contributes to accident risks. These factors, alone or combined, significantly increase the likelihood of crashes involving FedEx trucks.

Potential Liable Parties in FedEx Accidents

Liability in FedEx truck accidents can be attributed to various parties, including:

  • The FedEx driver involved in the crash
  • The trucking or delivery company or service partner operating the vehicle, especially as many FedEx trucks are owned or operated by contractors
  • The truck owner
  • Manufacturers or maintenance providers responsible for defective parts or improper repairs
  • Cargo loaders whose negligence may contribute to unsafe vehicle conditions
  • FedEx as a corporate entity

FedEx accident lawyers help victims investigate these accidents, identify all liable parties, and pursue compensation while addressing corporate accountability and FedEx driver accident policies.

What to Do After a Delivery Truck Accident in Virginia

Steps to Take Immediately After the Crash

  1. Call the police to report the delivery truck accident
  2. Take photos and videos of the scene, including any truck accident details if applicable
  3. Gather identifying information such as driver name, company, and license plate
  4. Seek medical care immediately, even if injuries seem minimal
  5. Avoid giving statements to insurance agents without legal counsel
  6. Contact a delivery truck accident attorney in Virginia promptly

How to Protect Your Rights and Gather Evidence

After a delivery truck accident, gathering evidence is a critical step when building a strong case. Start by taking clear photos and videos of the accident scene, vehicle damage, road conditions, and any visible injuries. Collect contact information from witnesses and get detailed statements when possible. Keep all medical records and treatment bills that document your injuries and recovery. 

Your attorney can help obtain important documents like police reports, the truck driver’s logbooks showing hours of service, electronic logging device (ELD) data, maintenance records, and even black box data from the truck’s event data recorder.

When to Call a Delivery Truck Accident Attorney

It’s important to contact a qualified commercial delivery truck accident lawyer as soon as possible after an accident, whether it involves Amazon delivery accident claims, UPS truck crashes, or other delivery driver accidents. Early legal guidance helps protect your rights and ensures preservation of key evidence. 

An experienced delivery truck accident attorney can guide you through insurance claims, help to identify all responsible parties, and fight to secure the compensation you deserve.

Compensation Available in a Delivery Truck Accident Claim

  • Medical Expenses and Ongoing Treatment: Covers hospital stays, surgeries, medications, rehabilitation, and future medical needs arising from your injuries.
  • Lost Wages and Loss of Earning Capacity: Recover income lost during recovery and any future earning capacity reduction due to lasting injuries.
  • Pain, Suffering, and Emotional Distress: Compensation also addresses trauma such as anxiety, depression, and PTSD that often accompany serious delivery truck accidents.

Frequently Asked Questions 

Can I sue Amazon if their delivery driver caused my accident?

Yes, you may be able to sue Amazon if their delivery driver caused your accident. Liability depends on whether the driver was an employee or independent contractor and how much control Amazon exercised over the driver and delivery operations. A skilled Amazon delivery truck accident attorney can investigate and help hold Amazon accountable if appropriate.

What if the UPS or FedEx driver was an independent contractor?

Even if the UPS or FedEx driver was classified as an independent contractor, the company may still be liable depending on the degree of control it exerts over the driver and vehicle. Courts often examine whether the company had the right to control the driver's actions, which can make them responsible under vicarious liability or respondeat superior.

How does Virginia’s contributory negligence law affect my claim?

Virginia follows contributory negligence rules, meaning if you are found even slightly at fault for your accident, you may be barred from recovering damages. This makes it critically important to have an experienced truck accident attorney on your side to build the strongest possible case and protect your rights.

How long do I have to file a truck accident lawsuit in Virginia?

In Virginia, the statute of limitations for filing a truck accident lawsuit is generally two years from the date of the accident. It is best to consult with a delivery truck accident attorney promptly to ensure your claim is filed on time and evidence is preserved.

Cobi M.

"Throughout 2019 and 2020 Attorney Kevin Biniazan helped me with a personal injury case. Aside from the professionalism and attentiveness one would expect from a quality law firm such as Breit Cantor Grana Buckner, I was taken by the fact that they agreed to take my case on a contingency basis, even though there was little evidence in my favor in the early stages of preparation. This meant the world to me. It meant that they believed in me, and my case, when two other firms declined to take the case. In late 2020 the case settled out of court and I received a substantial monetary award that exceeded my expectations. Thank you Kevin, and all your support staff for believing in me when many others did not!!!!"

Markgerszewski

Scott S.

"My experience with Breit Biniazan and his team was very positive. They were very helpful, were always available, took time to explain the process, and answer any questions I had. A special thanks to Kellie for all her support and efforts. I always felt she was on my side and looking out for my best interest. I would highly recommend Mr. Binazan and his team and would not hesitate to use their services should the need arise."

Mark T.

"Michael Collett represented us in our suit, and he was incredible. He made quick, efficient work of getting our case positively resolved while also making sure to keep us updated along the way. We recommend him to anyone seeking representation in a personal injury suit.

Our suit had dragged on for five years, and we wondered if it would ever be finished. Once Mike was handed our case, he immediately got to work getting to know us and understanding the timeline of events. Additionally, as a prior military member, he understood that our case was not a traditional cut-and-dry lawsuit: our life continued while the company dragged it out in court, including PCSing overseas and then back to the US during COVID. This kind of personal understanding and attention to detail was instrumental to our case. Mike's background, compassion, attentiveness, and professionalism made the difference; without him, we could have had a very different outcome.

If you are in need of any representation for a personal injury suit, I highly recommend Michael and his colleagues."

Kim V.

"I'm an attorney in Nebraska and represented a Nebraska family who lost their son/brother due to an electrocution on a job site in Virginia. After handling the workers' compensation claim in Nebraska, I reached out to multiple law firms in Virginia, ultimately co-counseling with Kevin Biniazan on the Virginia third party claims. He worked the case up, secured experts, and ultimately tried the case to a jury. Kevin and his team did a fantastic job presenting the case, arguing points of law, and overall just demonstrated that they had put extraordinary time and effort into preparing the case for trial. They secured a 7-figure recovery on tough facts and were great to work with along the way. I highly recommend Kevin and his firm."

Aaron B.

"I give Kevin Biniazan and his team the highest rating I can. I had a case in Va Beach a few years ago, called a few attorneys but ended up going with Kevin because of the knowledge and compassion he showed. After telling Kevin my issue, he and his team did all the work. They took the time to listen to my concerns and feelings, they were informative and available at all times. Along with the success of my case, Kevin and his team gave me the opportunity and support I needed to begin healing. I couldn’t recommend enough!"

Brit T.

"Outstanding service! My case lasted approximately 2 years, the staff was more than patient with me and the multiple questions I had throughout the process. I highly recommend their services to all."

Donald B.

"I was injured in a motorcycle accident with a car driver and refered to Breit Biniazan by a second lawfirm from my home state. They were professional and got me through one of the most painful times in my life. I simply gave them what they needed and they took care of the rest, getting me proper compensation for my pain and suffering."

Kurtis P.

"I took a chance on this firm from a recommendation and I couldn’t be happier with their work and the results of my case. Kellie and Nilda are pure gold! Kellie kept me appraised of everything that was going on, timely and answered all my questions and concerns. I followed a recommendation; trust me, Breit Biniazan is the very best!"

Ally A.

They worked with me for well over a year, coming to a successful resolution for my cases. They are incredibly passionate about their job and getting to an outcome desired for their plaintiffs. I would recommend their firm for any cases you may have, no questions asked."

Zach H.

"I’ve never been in a lawsuit, nor have I been to court, or had anything dealing with legal matter so all of this was pretty new to me, and 9/10 it was scary & heart racing. The only reason I got through it is because of Kevin. If it wasn’t for him with his patience, his commitment to his client, or the will to go the distance I never would’ve had confidence in any of this legal stuff. 10/10 recommend Breit Biniazan."

Tyler B.

"Kept me informed of the entire process. Offered advice on how to proceed."

Kenneth P.

"Fantastic team! Kevin is an amazing attorney who comes through on his word. Kylee and the team of paralegals went above and beyond to help me understand what we should expect in the case. I highly recommend Kevin’s team to anyone who is not only in need of a legal team, but one who will get them what they deserve!"

Angelica S.

"Kevin and his team worked tirelessly to help us secure the best possible outcome for an incredibly difficult situation. They were supportive and attentive to our needs, walked us through the process step by step and fought hard for us. I would highly recommend Breit Biniazan for all of your legal needs."

Carmen A.

"Following a motor vehicle accident, I needed assistance with handling insurance issues and was referred to Breit Biniazan for their expertise. I had the pleasure of working with attorney Alexis Meier and her paralegal Molisa Gardner. They managed my case with utmost professionalism, efficiency, and thoroughness.

As a physician, I am aware that some law firms may try to enhance settlements by recommending excessive consultations, imaging studies, and other tests, as well as extensive therapy. However, Alexis and Molisa ensured that I received the necessary care without subjecting me to unnecessary tests or treatments. I found their approach to be both ethical and professional.

I wholeheartedly endorse Breit Biniazan and recommend their services to anyone in a similar situation."

Andrew D.

"Alexis Meier is an exceptional attorney—professional, knowledgeable, and highly effective. She handled my case with efficiency, care, and compassion, ensuring everything was managed seamlessly. Her team was equally impressive, always responsive and prompt in their communication. It was an absolute pleasure working with them, and I highly recommend Alexis and her team to anyone in need of outstanding legal representation."
