Skilled El Paso Delivery Vehicle Accident Attorneys Fighting for Injury Victims
Our Glen Larson Law Injury Attorneys delivery vehicle accident lawyers in El Paso know it is practically impossible to step out of your home or get behind the wheel of your vehicle without encountering a FedEx, UPS, or Amazon truck or another delivery vehicle in your neighborhood, on city streets, or the freeway.
Furthermore, the surge in the number of delivery vehicles in Texas and throughout the country shows no sign of slowing.
Car and Driver reported that Amazon says its last-mile delivery network delivered packages from 150 domestic delivery stations that employ more than 90,000 people last year, including the company’s more than 800 Amazon Delivery Service Partners that operate in its network, which employs an additional 75,000 drivers in the United States.
Currently, FedEx delivers approximately 18 million packages per day in the U.S. with just over 87,000 motorized vehicles in its inventory – up from 77,000 just one year ago.
And UPS now has approximately 127,000 package cars, vans, tractors, and motorcycles operating each day, according to their latest Fact Sheet.
As the fleet and delivery numbers continue to grow, these companies continue to put profits over safety, hiring inexperienced drivers to work long hours under pressure to deliver more packages in less time. Frequently, these drivers are managed with little to no company oversight leaving our communities vulnerable to collisions caused by the companies’ negligent hiring, training, and management practices by companies like Amazon, UPS, and FedEx.
If you have been injured or lost a loved one in a collision with a delivery vehicle in Texas, our skilled personal injury lawyers in El Paso will help you hold the negligent party — or combination of parties — liable for your financial recovery.

More Amazon, UPS & FedEx Delivery Vehicles Mean More Accidents with Injuries and Fatalities Throughout Texas
As the previous statistics reflect, UPS, FedEx, and Amazon are continuing to add to their delivery vehicle fleets, which requires hiring more drivers to ensure they are actively operating.
With fewer experienced drivers to fill the demand, these companies have transformed their fleets into vehicles that do not require a Commercial Driver’s License to operate, eliminating the need for special training and qualified exam endorsements from the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles.
Cutting corners, albeit legally from a licensing standpoint, can lead to significant delivery vehicle crashes, injuries, and fatalities throughout Texas caused by:
- Negligent Driver Screening
- Negligent Corporate Driver Retention
- Improper Training
- Lack of Vehicle Knowledge and Experience
- Inadequate Supervision of Delivery Truck Drivers
- Distracted Driving
- Poor Vehicle Maintenance
- Improperly Loaded Freight/Cargo
- Drivers Failing to Comply with Federal and State Safety Regulations
- Speeding
- Sudden Stops
- Impaired Driving
- Use of Corporate Issued Electronic Devices Behind the Wheel
- Left Turns Against Traffic
- Failing to Use the Parking Brake
- Driver Incentive-Based Compensation to do More in Less Time
