Injured or Lost a Loved One in an Accident Involving a UPS Driver in Maryland or DC? Here’s What You Need to Know
United Parcel Service (UPS) trucks are a common sight on the roads of Maryland and the District of Columbia. With their large size, tight delivery schedules, and frequent stops, UPS vehicles can pose a real danger to other motorists, cyclists, and pedestrians. If you or a loved one has been injured or killed in a crash caused by a UPS driver, you may be entitled to significant compensation—and you need a legal team with experience against major commercial carriers.
The Law Offices of Kim Parker, P.A. has successfully handled cases involving UPS delivery drivers and is ready to fight for your rights.
The Real Risks of UPS Delivery Trucks
UPS drivers are under pressure to deliver hundreds of packages each day, often navigating crowded neighborhoods, busy highways, and narrow city streets. This environment can lead to:
- Distracted driving as drivers check delivery schedules or GPS devices
- Speeding or aggressive driving to meet tight deadlines
- Failure to yield at intersections or crosswalks
- Improper backing up or parking in unsafe locations
- Fatigue from long shifts behind the wheel
Given the size and weight of UPS trucks, accidents can result in catastrophic injuries or even fatalities for others on the road.
Common Injuries from UPS Truck Accidents
Victims of UPS-related crashes in Maryland and DC have suffered:
- Traumatic brain injuries and concussions
- Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
- Broken bones and severe fractures
- Internal bleeding and organ damage
- Wrongful death
These cases often involve significant medical bills, lost wages, and lasting pain and suffering.
What to Do If You’re Hit by a UPS Driver
- Seek Medical Attention Immediately: Even if you feel “okay,” some injuries are not obvious right away.
- Report the Crash to Police: An official report is critical for your case.
- Gather Evidence: Take photos of the scene, your injuries, and the vehicles involved. Collect contact information for witnesses.
- Do Not Speak to UPS or Their Insurers Alone: UPS and their insurance companies may contact you quickly, but their goal is to minimize their liability.
- Contact an Experienced Attorney: Legal battles with large companies like UPS require skill, resources, and experience.
