More Information About FedEx
FedEx began operations in April 1973. Currently, the company claims to employ nearly 600,000 workers globally, spanning over 220 countries and territories, according to the company’s website.
The FedEx website also notes that the company operates a fleet of more than 210,000 motorized vehicles. Phoenix residents depend on FedEx deliveries for many different reasons, from business packages to certified documents. When traveling on Arizona roads and highways, it is not uncommon for motorists to pass a number of FedEx trucks.
FedEx drivers are trained to avoid any type of unsafe driving situation and are urged to adhere to the safety principles outlined by the company. But despite the company’s best efforts, FedEx truck accidents are not uncommon.

- Failing to set the trucks parking brakes when making a delivery
- Failure to yield when merging back into traffic after making a delivery
- Backing up a FedEx truck after missing the desired delivery address
- Failure to obey traffic laws
- Inadequate training
- Operating a truck under the influence of drugs or alcohol
- Fatigued drivers
- Failing to complete repairs or safety checks
