The vehicle is far heavier, the driver runs a linehaul or regional route rather than local delivery, and federal motor carrier safety rules apply to it, with their own requirements on driver hours, inspections, and maintenance.<\/p>\n    <p style=\"color:var(--muted);font-size:1.02rem;line-height:1.7;margin:0\">Breaking one of those rules is evidence of negligence in itself, and it can support a claim against the carrier directly. A FedEx freight accident or FedEx semi crash is handled by our <a href=\"https:\/\/severeinjurylawyers.com\/practice-areas\/truck-accident-lawyers\/\" style=\"color:var(--gold)\">truck accident lawyers<\/a>, whose page covers those rules and what breaking them proves.<\/p>\n  <\/div>\n<\/section>\n<!-- 6.

The driver caused the crash, so the driver stays in the case from beginning to end.<\/p>\n        <p>The employer has to pay for what its driver did on the job. Lawyers call that rule vicarious liability, and the full version is on our <a href=\"https:\/\/severeinjurylawyers.com\/practice-areas\/car-accident-lawyers\/company-vehicle-accidents\/\">company vehicle accident guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n        <p>When a FedEx employee was driving, the rule applies on its own, and the 2024 consolidation did not change it: Federal Express Corporation employed the driver, so Federal Express Corporation pays.<\/p>\n        <p>When a contracted provider ran the route, the rule has to be proved rather than assumed. The deciding fact is who controlled the driver&#8217;s work that day, not the name painted on the van, and the answer can make the carrier, the provider, or both owe you for the same driver.<\/p>\n        <p>Most of that proof comes from the route agreement, which is not a public document, so we obtain it and argue from what it actually says. We never name a defendant on a guess: the three records in the card are read first, every time.<\/p>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"ind__card\">\n        <span class=\"std\">Three records that answer the route question<\/span>\n        <ul role=\"list\" style=\"list-style:none;margin:0;padding:0;display:grid;gap:1rem\">\n          <li style=\"list-style:none;position:relative;padding-left:3rem;color:var(--muted);font-size:1rem;line-height:1.6\"><span aria-hidden=\"true\" style=\"position:absolute;left:0;top:-2px;width:2rem;height:2rem;display:grid;place-items:center;font-family:var(--f-head);font-weight:800;font-size:.95rem;color:#000;background:var(--gold);border-radius:50%\">1<\/span><b style=\"color:#fff\">The officer&#8217;s crash report.<\/b> It records the driver and the business shown on the vehicle.<\/li>\n          <li style=\"list-style:none;position:relative;padding-left:3rem;color:var(--muted);font-size:1rem;line-height:1.6\"><span aria-hidden=\"true\" style=\"position:absolute;left:0;top:-2px;width:2rem;height:2rem;display:grid;place-items:center;font-family:var(--f-head);font-weight:800;font-size:.95rem;color:#000;background:var(--gold);border-radius:50%\">2<\/span><b style=\"color:#fff\">Registration and lease records.<\/b> These name the legal owner and anyone running the vehicle under contract.<\/li>\n          <li style=\"list-style:none;position:relative;padding-left:3rem;color:var(--muted);font-size:1rem;line-height:1.6\"><span aria-hidden=\"true\" style=\"position:absolute;left:0;top:-2px;width:2rem;height:2rem;display:grid;place-items:center;font-family:var(--f-head);font-weight:800;font-size:.95rem;color:#000;background:var(--gold);border-radius:50%\">3<\/span><b style=\"color:#fff\">The route agreement itself.<\/b> It is not public, and discovery reaches it when the first two point different ways.<\/li>\n        <\/ul>\n        <p style=\"color:var(--muted);font-size:.95rem;line-height:1.6;margin:1.1rem 0 0;padding-top:1rem;border-top:1px solid var(--line)\">Where all three land on Federal Express Corporation, the claim stays with the carrier.

Hiring a driver with a known crash record is one example. Skipping required training counts, and so does a reported vehicle fault the business never fixed.<\/p>\n        <p>The two claims are proved with different records. The driver&#8217;s negligence comes out of the collision itself; the business&#8217;s comes from employment and servicing files it holds and you cannot reach alone.<\/p>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"frost reveal\">\n        <h3 id=\"fdx-notice-h\">What our written notice does<\/h3>\n        <p>Delivery records are not kept forever. Scan data, vehicle data, and driver files get deleted on a schedule the business sets, and that schedule can run out well inside your two years.<\/p>\n        <p>So we put the carrier, and any provider we have identified, on written notice within days of opening the file. The notice names your crash and the records connected to it, on a dated letter the business cannot say it never received, and a business on notice cannot let those records quietly disappear. The notice also locks down the driver&#8217;s hiring and training file, the same records that prove a claim against the business itself.<\/p>\n        <p>After that notice, anything that disappears is something the business has to account for, not something you lose. That failure has a legal name, spoliation, and it can be used against the business in court.<\/p>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/section>\n<!-- 7.

These are the questions that come up on first calls.<\/p>\n        <div class=\"faq__aside\" style=\"margin-top:clamp(28px,3.5vw,40px)\">\n          <h3>Talk to an attorney today<\/h3>\n          <p>Bring us the crash report and the date it happened. Your filing deadline gets calendared before anything else.<\/p>\n          <a href=\"tel:+14698077480\" class=\"btn btn--primary\" style=\"width:100%;justify-content:center\">Call (469) 807-7480<\/a>\n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"faq__list\">\n        <details class=\"faq__item\">\n          <summary class=\"faq__q\">Who is responsible after a FedEx accident?<span class=\"ic\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/summary>\n          <div class=\"faq__a\">The driver, together with whichever business employed that driver on the route. Since the June 2024 reorganization, that business is often Federal Express Corporation itself. Where a contracted service provider ran the route, the provider belongs in the case as well, and we establish the answer from records rather than from the paint on the vehicle.<\/div>\n        <\/details>\n        <details class=\"faq__item\">\n          <summary class=\"faq__q\">Are FedEx drivers employees or contractors?<span class=\"ic\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/summary>\n          <div class=\"faq__a\">Both kinds exist. Many drivers are employees of Federal Express Corporation, and many others are hired by contracted service providers, which are separate businesses running routes under agreement. Nothing about the vehicle tells you which one hit you, which is why we get the answer in writing before naming anyone.<\/div>\n        <\/details>\n        <details class=\"faq__item\">\n          <summary class=\"faq__q\">Did the 2024 FedEx merger change who I sue?<span class=\"ic\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/summary>\n          <div class=\"faq__a\">It changed the corporate name you are likely to see, not the underlying question. Someone still has to establish which business the driver was working for that day, and that answer decides who gets named in your claim.<\/div>\n        <\/details>\n        <details class=\"faq__item\">\n          <summary class=\"faq__q\">What if the FedEx driver worked for a service provider?<span class=\"ic\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/summary>\n          <div class=\"faq__a\">Then the claim may reach more than one business. We obtain the route agreement and establish who directed the work, rather than accepting a label, because the provider, the carrier, or both can owe you for the same driver.<\/div>\n        <\/details>\n        <details class=\"faq__item\">\n          <summary class=\"faq__q\">Can I sue FedEx directly?<span class=\"ic\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/summary>\n          <div class=\"faq__a\">Where its employee caused the crash, yes, Federal Express Corporation itself has to pay for what its driver did. Where a provider employed the driver, the claim starts with the provider, and the carrier can still be part of the case where the facts show it directed the work. That question is answered from the route agreement, which we obtain in discovery.<\/div>\n        <\/details>\n        <details class=\"faq__item\">\n          <summary class=\"faq__q\">How long do I have to bring a claim in Texas?<span class=\"ic\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/summary>\n          <div class=\"faq__a\">Two years from the date of the crash, under Section 16.003 of the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code, with narrow exceptions you should confirm for your own dates, and the petition has to be filed by then rather than nearly ready. The delivery records that prove the case get deleted on the businesses&#8217; own schedules well before that date, so waiting has a cost the statute never mentions; see our guide to <a href=\"https:\/\/severeinjurylawyers.com\/texas-car-accident-filing-deadlines\/\">Texas filing deadlines<\/a>.<\/div>\n        <\/details>\n        <details class=\"faq__item\">\n          <summary class=\"faq__q\">What evidence does FedEx have after a crash?<span class=\"ic\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/summary>\n          <div class=\"faq__a\">Scan and stop data, operating data where the vehicle recorded it, the driver&#8217;s hiring and training file, servicing records, and any note the business made about the collision for its own purposes. You cannot obtain those yourself, which is why our written notice goes out within days of opening the file.<\/div>\n        <\/details>\n        <details class=\"faq__item\">\n          <summary class=\"faq__q\">What if the delivery driver was not in a FedEx branded vehicle?<span class=\"ic\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/summary>\n          <div class=\"faq__a\">Contracted providers sometimes run unbranded or partially branded vehicles, so the absence of a logo settles nothing. The crash report and the registration records tell us who was behind that route. Bring us whatever you photographed, and we will run the records from there.<\/div>\n        <\/details>\n        <details class=\"faq__item\">\n          <summary class=\"faq__q\">What does hiring you cost?<span class=\"ic\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/summary>\n          <div class=\"faq__a\">Nothing up front, and no attorney&#8217;s fee at all unless we recover. The fee comes out of the recovery, and we carry the cost of the records and the experts while the case is being built; see <a href=\"https:\/\/severeinjurylawyers.com\/how-contingency-fees-work-texas\/\">how contingency fees work<\/a> for the full breakdown.<\/div>\n        <\/details>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/section>\n<!-- 13.
