A delivery van typically weighs about 15,000 pounds, while a long-distance delivery semi-truck can weigh up to the legal maximum of 80,000 pounds when fully loaded.

What Are Common Causes of Land O’ Lakes Delivery Truck Crashes?
Online retail companies compete on how fast they can deliver their packages. They put intense pressure on their delivery truck drivers to meet delivery quotas that are often so unreasonable that the drivers don’t have time to take rest breaks when they need them. The drivers become dangerously tired. The more tired they are, the worse their reaction time and the more likely they are to fall asleep while driving.
Land O’ Lakes delivery truck drivers may also cause accidents by driving too fast, being distracted by their devices, and making abrupt turns and stops. Inexperienced and poorly trained drivers are especially likely to make negligent driving mistakes. Delivery truck accidents may also be caused by manufacturing defects in the truck or its parts, inadequate maintenance and repairs, and improper loading of packages.
Our Land O’ Lakes delivery truck accident legal team will thoroughly investigate your accident to find out who was negligent and should, therefore, be held financially responsible for your injuries. We will amass the evidence needed to prove negligence and build a compelling case for your right to substantial compensation for all the damages you have suffered and may continue to suffer because of your truck accident injuries.
