Delivery drivers face unique risks navigating Phoenix’s busy roadways. Common causes of DoorDash delivery accidents include:
Distracted driving due to the DoorDash app or smartphone GPS use while in motion
Poorly maintained roads and unexpected road hazards across city routes
Fatigue and rushing caused by tight delivery windows or multiple orders
Aggressive driving from other motorists in high-traffic zones
Limited insurance coverage due to DoorDash drivers being considered independent contractors
Night-time driving and poor visibility, especially in high-demand restaurant districts near Downtown Phoenix, Arcadia, and Camelback East
Each of these factors can contribute to serious delivery accident cases resulting in broken bones, bodily injury, or emotional trauma.
Understanding the scale of traffic and delivery activity in Phoenix helps explain why DoorDash delivery accidents continue to rise.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, Phoenix has a population of roughly 1.6 million residents, making it one of the busiest metropolitan areas in the Southwest. With such a large and growing population, the city’s roadways experience heavy congestion from commuters, rideshare vehicles, and food delivery drivers.
The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) reported that in 2023, there were 119,991 motor vehicle crashes statewide, including 37,327 in Maricopa County, where Phoenix is located. Of these collisions, more than 1,000 involved serious injuries or fatalities. This high traffic volume contributes to an elevated risk for DoorDash delivery drivers who spend extended hours navigating the city’s streets.
Private analytics data from Start.io estimate that there are approximately 10,988 DoorDash users in Phoenix, while Helplama reports that DoorDash controls about 53 percent of the food-delivery market share in the city. Data from WorkSolo further indicate that DoorDash delivery drivers in Phoenix earn around $16.26 per hour on average, placing them among the most active gig-economy workers in Arizona. As more residents rely on food-delivery services, the number of DoorDash delivery drivers on the road has grown, resulting in a higher likelihood of delivery accidents and collisions involving other motorists and pedestrians.
While there is limited public data specifically about DoorDash delivery accidents, national research from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) shows that distracted driving and the increased road time of commercial and gig-economy drivers are major contributors to crash risk. When combined with long shifts, constant app use, and strict delivery windows, these factors make food-delivery drivers particularly vulnerable to serious accidents and bodily injuries on Phoenix roads.
If you were involved in an accident while delivering food or struck by a DoorDash delivery driver, you may have the right to seek compensation for:
Medical bills and medical expenses related to emergency care and long-term recovery
Lost wages if you’re unable to work following the crash
Property damage to your vehicle or motorcycle
Emotional distress and pain and suffering
Future rehabilitation or therapy
Because DoorDash drivers are considered independent contractors, determining insurance coverage can be complex. You may be covered under DoorDash’s insurance policies, the driver’s personal insurance, or your own automobile insurance, depending on when the accident occurred (before, during, or after a delivery).
At Harris Injury Law, we help injured victims gather medical records, obtain police reports, interview witness statements, and analyze all parties involved to ensure every responsible party is held liable.

We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside it.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers).
Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs. There may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to
