If you live in Charlotte, you may have noticed more than a few Amazon distribution centers in the city. Last year, Amazon announced plans to put another fulfillment center and two more delivery stations in the city.
While the new locations will bring more jobs for Charoltteans, this also means that there will be more Amazon delivery trucks on the road. And with this increased number of locations, an increase in demand for goods, and a worker shortage, Amazon drivers may be under more stress than ever. When an Amazon Prime delivery driver is under immense pressure, they’re bound to make mistakes, causing accidents and serious injuries for everyone involved.

This means the liable party in your case may be the company that hired the contractor and not Amazon itself.
Although most Amazon delivery truck drivers are not hired directly by Amazon, Amazon does require all of its contractors to have liability insurance, known as Amazon Flex Insurance coverage. This coverage will cover up to $1 million in injuries and damages you’ve suffered. However, to file a claim against this insurance, the driver must have been on the clock when the accident happened. If the accident occurred when the driver was clocked out, you would not be able to seek compensation for your injuries against the Amazon Flex policy.
In some cases, you may be able to file a claim against parties other than the Amazon delivery truck driver. You may also be able to file a claim against:
