Delivery Vehicle Crashes Are on the Rise! 

Fatal accidents involving delivery vehicles increased by 25% nationwide from 2015–2018, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). That trend has, by and large, continued into the present day.

Customers greatly benefit from same-day delivery for parcels, and as customer needs become more of a priority for delivery companies, more supply chain firms are providing faster services.

However, that increase in same-day deliveries can result in delivery drivers speeding or driving more recklessly to get to their locations on time.

Amazon Flex is a newer program designed for individuals to pick up extra income by making deliveries with their personal vehicle. Accident victims find it challenging to identify Amazon Flex contractors from regular vehicles, which causes some confusion when filing a delivery accident claim.

Amazon contractors bid on delivery blocks but may be unfamiliar with routes, increasing risk of accidents while driving personal vehicles.

According to a 2021 supply chain analysis, Amazon delivery drivers have the highest injury rate of any logistics chain in the market.

FedEx is one of the largest delivery companies with different subsidiaries. The company employs over 160,000 individual drivers. The company delivers 12 million packages daily in various vehicles.
