Collisions Caused by Drivers Employed by Amazon
Unfortunately, Amazon pushes its delivery drivers to almost impossible schedules, docking them pay for any slight delay or detour. As such, Amazon drivers end up causing serious collisions that leave victims with extensive medical bills and other damages. The one positive thing about being involved in a collision with an Amazon vehicle is the liability policy that is likely available to you. Amazon provides a Commercial Auto Insurance Policy, including up to $1,000,000 in liability coverage, for all of their drivers at no cost. As such, this gives you a large amount of money (much larger than most personal insurance policies are) to pay for your damages if the Amazon driver is at fault. However, proving fault is never easy, especially when the negligent culprit is a large commercial delivery service like Amazon.
Collisions Caused by Third Party Contractors Driving for Amazon
If the driver working for Amazon was actually a third party contractor—this is actually fairly common—they are not insured by Amazon’s auto policy. You may be able to seek compensation from the contractor’s commercial vehicle insurance, or their own personal liability insurance, the latter being more complicated as the policy might not apply for commercial situations.
Injured Amazon Driver Who Was Not at Fault
If you were driving for Amazon and another party caused the crash, you are entitled to compensation from the at fault party, and potentially from Amazon’s uninsured/underinsured motorist policy. Your Amazon Commercial Auto Insurance Policy includes coverage for you, though not your passengers, in the event that an uninsured or minimally insured driver causes a crash in which you are injured. This UM policy is part of the free auto insurance that Amazon provides to all of its employed drivers. However, if you are a third party contractor, this does not apply to you.
