Have You Been Injured by a Delivery Van?
Delivery truck drivers and the companies that hire them are required to follow federal regulations set forth by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) as well as other federal and state laws. These regulations cover such factors as vehicle maintenance, driver training and hiring.
In handling a delivery truck accident case, our lawyers conduct thorough investigations to determine if the truck driver or company violated a regulation and whether that led to the accident. Common causes of delivery van and truck accidents include speeding, driving while tired and failing to yield right of way.
Delivery vans can also create visibility hazards by parking illegally. When a driver parks a large delivery van or truck in a traffic lane or near a driveway or intersection, it can cause collisions by obscuring the view of other drivers.
Whatever the cause of your delivery van accident, it is important to consult with an experienced personal injury lawyer before making any statement to the insurance company. Speak to our lawyers to fully understand your rights.
