McKinney UPS Accident Lawyer
Aggressive Representation for Your Injury Claim
Every day, millions of packages are delivered to homes and businesses. The availability of fast, efficient delivery has become crucial to the United States economy. This has also provided benefits for many consumers, since people can often order products online and have them shipped to their door within a few days. However, this convenience has come at a cost. As more packages are delivered, more delivery drivers are on the roads, increasing the likelihood of motor vehicle accidents involving delivery vehicles.

Our personal injury lawyers understand the complex issues involved in these cases, and we will work diligently to obtain the compensation you deserve. We have access to the best experts in Texas and the United States, including accident reconstruction experts, who will inspect the scene and reconstruct the crash to develop evidence to identify the responsible parties and the theories of liability.
Issues That Can Affect UPS Driver Accidents
UPS drivers are under immense pressure to make large numbers of deliveries in a limited period of time. This can often lead UPS drivers to exceed speed limits or engage in other unsafe behaviors while behind the wheel, which can increase the likelihood of an accident. Because UPS trucks are so large, they can be more difficult to maneuver, and drivers who violate traffic laws are more likely to make driving errors and strike other vehicles or pedestrians.
To make matters worse, UPS drivers may be distracted by multiple factors while driving. While behind the wheel, they may search for directions to their next destination or make phone calls or send text messages. Since the large size of UPS trucks already limits a driver's ability to see what is happening on the road around them, distractions can significantly increase the chances that a driver will be involved in a collision.
There are multiple other factors that may also play a role in a UPS accident. If a truck or other delivery vehicle is not properly maintained, the failure of parts such as brakes or engine components may cause a driver to lose control. In some cases, accidents may occur because a UPS truck blocks traffic while a driver is making deliveries. A driver's ability to operate a vehicle safely may also be affected by fatigue or intoxication by alcohol or drugs.
