Commerce Amazon Accidents Attorney

Let our Commerce Amazon Accident Attorney Fight for You

Accidents involving Amazon delivery drivers have become increasingly common as the demand for fast and efficient delivery services continues to grow. With Amazon drivers making hundreds of deliveries each day, they can engage in risky behaviors in order to meet tight schedules. These accidents can result in significant injuries for the people involved, as well as complex legal challenges due to the classification of Amazon drivers as independent contractors. At Burress Injury Law, we work to ensure that people who are injured in Amazon delivery vehicle accidents will receive the compensation they deserve.

Types of Accidents Involving Amazon Drivers

Amazon delivery drivers operate under very tight schedules that require them to deliver large numbers of items in short periods of time. To meet the demands placed on them, Amazon drivers may engage in risky or dangerous behaviors while driving, and this can increase the likelihood of accidents. Common types of accidents caused by delivery driver negligence include:

• Rear-end collisions: Amazon drivers may tailgate behind other vehicles or exceed speed limits, and they may be unable to slow down or stop in time to avoid rear-ending other cars. These accidents can cause whiplash, spinal injuries, and other forms of serious physical harm to the occupants of the impacted vehicle.
• Side-impact collisions: T-bone collisions can occur when a delivery driver fails to obey traffic signals or stop signs. These accidents are particularly dangerous, and they can result in severe injuries to drivers or passengers on the side of the vehicle that is struck.
• Pedestrian accidents: When navigating through residential areas, Amazon drivers may not always be attentive to pedestrians, and they may strike people who are crossing the road or walking on sidewalks or driveways. These accidents can result in serious injuries or fatalities. Children playing in driveways or yards or walking to school are especially vulnerable to inattentive Amazon delivery drivers.
• Parking lot accidents: In the rush to deliver packages, Amazon drivers may speed through parking lots or fail to check their blind spots, causing accidents with other vehicles or pedestrians. These accidents can lead to serious injuries and other damages.
• Rollover accidents: Overloaded delivery vans and unsafe driving practices can result in accidents where delivery vehicles turn over onto their sides or upside down. These types of accidents are particularly hazardous, and they can cause severe injuries to others who may be struck by an overturned vehicle.

Legal Issues in Cases Involving Amazon Drivers

One of the significant issues that may affect accidents involving Amazon drivers is the classification of these drivers as independent contractors. This classification can complicate the process of determining liability and recovering compensation. At Burress Injury Law, our attorneys can help address legal concerns by:

• Determining liability: Because Amazon drivers are classified as independent contractors, Amazon may deny direct responsibility for a driver's actions. This can make it difficult to hold Amazon accountable for accidents caused by their drivers. However, legal arguments can be made about Amazon's control over delivery processes and schedules. Our lawyers will work to ensure that Amazon will be held responsible for unsafe practices that led to accidents and injuries.
• Challenging a driver's employment status: There may be situations where the independent contractor status of a delivery driver can be challenged. If it can be shown that Amazon exercises significant control over the driver's work conditions, it may be possible to argue that the driver is effectively an employee, thereby holding Amazon more accountable for the driver's negligence.
• Addressing insurance complications: Independent contractors typically carry their own auto insurance policies. When filing insurance claims, our attorneys can work to negotiate settlements that will fully address the injuries and damages our clients have suffered. We know how insurance companies may try to limit payouts in these cases, and we can respond to unfair and unethical tactics and take legal action when necessary to ensure that injury victims will receive the full compensation they deserve.
