Common Causes of FedEx Delivery Truck Accidents in Boston
FedEx trucks whiz by Boston streets daily, picking up and delivering packages to homes and businesses. However, the stress on drivers to maintain a rapid pace often leads to human error and negligence, resulting in accidents. Too often, FedEx’s corporate negligence contributes to accidents, too.
Identifying the cause of an accident is necessary to prove a claim. To succeed in a claim against FedEx, you must establish that the driver or the company breached its duty to operate the truck safely, causing an accident that resulted in your injuries and compensable damages. You need strong evidence to build a successful claim.
Common causes of FedEx delivery truck accidents in Boston include the following:
- Driver fatigue
- Unfamiliar routes or GPS errors
- Overloaded schedules and delivery quotas
- Distracted driving
- Poor truck maintenance
Our lawyers have the knowledge and skills to thoroughly investigate your accident, gather even the most difficult to obtain evidence, develop a sound legal strategy, and pursue the full compensation you deserve.

Common Injuries That Are a Result of FedEx Truck Accidents
When an accident occurs with a FedEx delivery truck, vehicle occupants are more susceptible to injuries and severe harm than the truck’s driver. The sheer size and weight of a delivery truck make it more unwieldy in an accident and have a more forceful impact in a collision.
Common injuries from delivery truck accidents include the following:
- Brain injuries
- Neck injuries
- Spine and back injuries
- Whiplash
- Broken or fractured bones
- Sprains or strains
- Internal bruising, bleeding, or organ damage
- Tissue damage
- Neurological damage
- Lacerations and bruising
- Paralysis
- Disabilities
- Wrongful deaths
Who's Liable in a FedEx Truck Accident?
When a FedEx truck causes an accident, many parties may be liable, making the litigation complex.
If the driver causes a crash in the course of their work, such as driving along their route, FedEx may be held liable under the doctrine of vicarious liability, also called respondeat superior.
This legal concept holds employers responsible for employees’ negligence when that conduct occurs on the job within the scope of their regular employment. Under these circumstances, you can sue FedEx itself for your damages.
FedEx might also be directly liable for its own corporate negligence. For instance, it may have failed to properly screen drivers, inadequately trained them, made them comply with unrealistic delivery schedules, or failed to adhere to proper safety standards.
Truck accidents can also involve third-party liability. This means that a third party, such as a contractor, was negligent and caused the accident. For example, a maintenance company could perform faulty work on a FedEx truck, which caused it to crash. In this case, the maintenance company would be liable for damages.
A victim may also be partially liable for an accident. Massachusetts has a comparative negligence system under which you can still recover damages if you are less than 51% at fault for the accident. However, your compensation will be reduced by your share of the blame.
Our attorneys thoroughly investigate every aspect of your case so all responsible parties can be held accountable.
Safety Regulations FedEx Truck Drivers Must Follow in Massachusetts
Several mandatory safety measures in Massachusetts govern FedEx and its truck drivers. Compliance is legally required and not optional. These laws and regulations include:
- Commercial driver’s license, or CDL, requirements, which vary depending on the type of material the driver is hauling
- Mobile phone restrictions, such as Massachusetts’s “hands-free” driving law
- Mandatory daily vehicle inspections by drivers
- Hours-of-service driving limits, which drivers must track with logbooks or electronic logging devices, or ELDs
- Insurance liability minimums for commercial vehicles
Our attorneys have a comprehensive understanding of the laws FedEx must follow when operating trucks in Massachusetts. We put in the work to determine whether these rules were violated in the crash that caused your injury.
What To Do After a FedEx Delivery Truck Accident in Boston
After being hit by a FedEx delivery truck, there are a few important steps to take to protect your physical safety and maintain evidence you can use to build a case.
- Seek immediate medical care. Even if you feel okay, there may be underlying internal injuries that could lead to serious harm. Seeking care immediately also creates a record of your injuries.
- Document the accident scene. Take photos and videos of the crash site and your injuries if you’re able to. Filing a police report creates further documentation of the crash.
- Don’t speak to FedEx or its insurer without legal representation. FedEx and its insurer have their own experienced legal teams whose goal is to protect the company’s bottom line. Trying to talk to a large company and its attorneys on your own can lead to accidental incriminating statements, unfair settlement amounts, and more.
