“In New York City, we’ve seen a lot of cases where delivery trucks have been involved in accidents, and the reason being is the delivery trucks are all over the city. They have a job to do, but in the course of doing that job, sometimes they’re negligent in the way they drive their vehicles. They have deadlines to meet and sometimes that causes them to go through stop signs or go through red lights and cause accidents, and it also could be due to the fact that, they’re not getting enough rest working the long hours that they do.
The type of cases that we’ve handled due to delivery truck accidents have ranged from very significant–obviously, death–to injuries involving limbs, knees, shoulders, back, soft tissue injuries that turned out to be significant.”
