The driver&#8217;s personal savings usually do not.<\/p>\n<p>Most commercial delivery trucks carry commercial auto liability insurance. This policy pays for injuries and property damage. The insured person or company must be legally responsible for that harm.<\/p>\n<p>That coverage can help pay for medical bills, lost income, and other losses from a collision. More than one party may be insured. Depending on the facts, the policy may cover:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The driver<\/li>\n<li>The carrier that operates the truck<\/li>\n<li>The company that owns or leases the truck<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>FedEx Ground deliveries are often handled by independent contractors and owner-operators. Owner-operators are drivers who own their own trucks. This can change which policy applies. It can also change who is insured.<\/p>\n<p>Each case depends on how the delivery was arranged and what the contracts say.<\/p>\n<h2>What a Policy Limit Means for Your Claim<\/h2>\n<p>A policy limit is the most an insurer will pay for one accident under that policy. Limits are usually one combined amount for the whole crash. If several people are hurt, they may have to share that amount.<\/p>\n<p>Federal rules set a floor, which is a minimum. Under <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecfr.gov\/on\/2026-10-06\/title-49\/section-387.9\">49 CFR \u00a7 387.9<\/a>, the minimum for for-hire carriers of nonhazardous property in interstate or foreign commerce is $750,000. This applies to vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating of 10,001 pounds or more. That rating is the maximum weight the vehicle is built to carry.<\/p>\n<p>That amount is a minimum, not a maximum. Actual coverage depends on the policy in place.<\/p>\n<p>Excess and umbrella policies sit above the primary policy. The primary policy is the first policy that pays. Excess and umbrella policies can add to the total available. They count only if they apply to that crash.<\/p>\n<p>Florida also gives you a tool to find out what coverage exists. Under <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leg.state.fl.us\/statutes\/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&amp;URL=0600-0699\/0627\/Sections\/0627.4137.html\">\u00a7 627.4137<\/a>, an insurer that does or may provide liability insurance coverage to pay all or a portion of a claim must answer a claimant&#8217;s written request within 30 days. A claimant is the person making the claim.<\/p>\n<p>The answer is a sworn statement, which means it is signed under oath. It lists:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The insurer&#8217;s name<\/li>\n<li>Each insured&#8217;s name<\/li>\n<li>The coverage limits<\/li>\n<li>Any coverage defense the insurer reasonably believes is available to it at the time of filing (a reason the insurer believes it does not have to pay)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The insurer must also give you a copy of the policy.<\/p>\n<h2>When Injuries Are Worth More Than the Policy<\/h2>\n<p>Sometimes injuries are worth more than the insurance that applies. In that case, a claim may need other sources of recovery. Recovery means money paid to the injured person.<\/p>\n<p>Spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, and amputations can bring lifelong medical care and lost earning ability. These losses can exceed a single policy. That is why an early review matters.<\/p>\n<p>Other possible sources a lawyer may evaluate include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Other drivers who contributed to the crash<\/li>\n<li>Companies that maintained, repaired, or loaded the truck<\/li>\n<li>Companies that selected the carrier. In a 2026 decision, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.supremecourt.gov\/opinions\/25pdf\/608us1r32_g3bi.pdf\">Montgomery v. Caribe Transport II<\/a>, the U.S. Supreme Court held that a negligent-hiring claim against a broker falls within a federal safety exception. A negligent-hiring claim says a company was careless when it chose another company to do the work. A broker is a company that arranges shipping.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>An individual defendant&#8217;s personal assets are a separate question. Those assets are not insurance. They do not replace it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Be careful with releases.<\/strong> A release is a signed document that gives up your right to sue. Under <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leg.state.fl.us\/statutes\/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&amp;URL=0700-0799\/0768\/Sections\/0768.041.html\">\u00a7 768.041<\/a>, a release given to one party does not release others who may be liable for the same harm.<\/p>\n<p>Money you receive under a release or covenant not to sue can be set off against a later judgment if a defendant shows the court at trial that you received it in partial satisfaction of the damages sued for. A judgment is a court&#8217;s final decision on what is owed. Set off means the money you already received is subtracted from that amount. In plain terms, it lowers the amount a court awards later.<\/p>\n<p>If the injured person has Medicare, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cms.gov\/medicare\/coordination-benefits-recovery\/overview\/secondary-payer\">Centers for Medicare &amp; Medicaid Services<\/a> explains the usual order. How accident-related medical bills are paid depends on the facts of each case, and an attorney can explain how the options apply to your situation. Government health coverage, such as Medicare, can also be involved in accident-related medical bills, and how those bills are handled depends on the facts of each case.<\/p>\n<h2>Florida Rules That Shape a Truck Crash Claim<\/h2>\n<p>Florida uses a no-fault system first. Then it uses a permanent-injury threshold for larger claims.<\/p>\n<p>Under <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leg.state.fl.us\/statutes\/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&amp;URL=0600-0699\/0627\/Sections\/0627.737.html\">\u00a7 627.737<\/a>, owners and operators of insured vehicles are exempt from tort liability for bodily injury. Tort liability means being sued for money damages. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leg.state.fl.us\/statutes\/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&amp;URL=0600-0699\/0627\/Sections\/0627.737.html\">Fla. Stat. \u00a7 627.737<\/a> reads: &#8220;unless a person is entitled to maintain an action for pain, suffering, mental anguish, and inconvenience for such injury under the provisions of subsection (2).&#8221; This applies to the extent that no-fault benefits are payable. These benefits are called PIP, or personal injury protection.<\/p>\n<p>You may bring a claim for pain and suffering only if your injury meets a listed threshold. A threshold is the minimum level of injury the law requires. The threshold includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Significant and permanent loss of an important bodily function<\/li>\n<li>Permanent injury within a reasonable degree of medical probability, other than scarring or disfigurement<\/li>\n<li>Significant and permanent scarring or disfigurement<\/li>\n<li>Death<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Pedestrians and passengers may fall under different policies. Which coverage applies must be checked against the facts.<\/p>\n<p>Under <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leg.state.fl.us\/statutes\/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&amp;URL=0700-0799\/0768\/Sections\/0768.81.html\">\u00a7 768.81<\/a>, in a negligence action, the court enters judgment against each party on the basis of that party&#8217;s percentage of fault, not on the basis of joint and several liability.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Deadlines matter.<\/strong> Under <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leg.state.fl.us\/statutes\/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&amp;URL=0000-0099\/0095\/Sections\/0095.11.html\">\u00a7 95.11<\/a>, a negligence lawsuit must be started within two years. Contact our firm promptly so you do not miss a deadline.<\/p>\n<h2>What to Expect After a FedEx Truck Crash<\/h2>\n<p>The first steps are medical care, evidence, and careful talks with insurers. Here is the usual path, in order:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Get medical care and follow your doctors&#8217; plan.<\/strong> Early medical records help link your injuries to the crash.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Write down what you can.<\/strong> Keep the police report number, photos, and witness names. Report the crash to your own insurer.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Be careful with recorded statements.<\/strong> Adjusters are insurance claim workers. Trucking company adjusters work for the other side. Do not sign a release until your injuries are understood.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Preserve evidence.<\/strong> Electronic logs, dashcam video, and maintenance records can be overwritten or thrown away. A written preservation request is a letter asking the other side to keep these records. It helps protect them.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Document the full loss.<\/strong> Gather bills, pay records, and notes on future care needs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Demand, negotiate, and if needed, sue.<\/strong> Each claim moves at its own pace. No timeline can be promised.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<div class=\"cta-dose-mid wp-block-group has-base-color has-accent-background-color has-text-color has-background has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-32197852 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"background-color:var(--wp--preset--color--accent,#20242e);color:var(--wp--preset--color--base,#ffffff);border-radius:8px;padding-top:1.5rem;padding-bottom:1.5rem;padding-left:1.5rem;padding-right:1.5rem;border-left:6px solid var(--wp--preset--color--cta,currentColor);box-shadow:0 2px 10px rgba(0,0,0,0.18)\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-base-color has-text-color\">Not sure what your next step is?<\/h3><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Talk it through with our team &#8212; the first consultation is free, confidential, and carries no obligation.<\/p><div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\"><div class=\"wp-block-button chg-cta-call\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"tel:+17867514283\">Get a free consultation<\/a><\/div><div class=\"wp-block-button chg-cta-form\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/chglawyers.com\/contact-us\/\">Get a free consultation<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Why Choose CHG Personal Injury Lawyers for a FedEx Truck Claim<\/h2>\n<p>CHG Personal Injury Lawyers is a Florida-based personal injury firm.
