DoorDash and other delivery-driver crashes are often caused by unique challenges specific to app-based driving. Some of the most common causes include:
Distracted driving while using navigation apps or texting customers.
Rear-end collisions caused by frequent stops or sudden braking.
Speeding or rushing to complete deliveries within time limits.
Intoxicated drivers or impaired motorists sharing the road.
Roadway defects such as potholes, uneven lanes, or unclear signage.
Congested zones near Arizona State University, especially along University Drive, Rural Road, and Apache Boulevard.
Negligent drivers who fail to yield or disregard traffic signals.
These risks contribute to many auto accidents in Tempe every year, many of which involve serious injuries or property damage requiring medical care and legal support.
Understanding the broader crash context in Tempe and Maricopa County helps explain why legal guidance is often necessary after a delivery-related collision.
According to the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) 2023 Crash Facts Report, Maricopa County accounted for nearly 73 percent of all crashes statewide and about 50 percent of all fatal crashes in Arizona. These figures highlight how densely populated metro areas like Tempe experience a disproportionate share of roadway collisions.
Data from the City of Tempe Transportation Division indicate that more than 6,600 total crashes occurred within Tempe city limits in 2023, including over 2,000 injury crashes and roughly 30 fatal incidents.
The Maricopa Association of Governments (MAG) further reports that major arterials such as Rural Road, Baseline Road, and University Drive consistently rank among the Valley’s higher-risk corridors for vehicle collisions, routes frequently used by delivery and rideshare drivers.
Together, these statistics demonstrate that car accidents in Tempe can involve injuries, medical expenses, and insurance issues. For anyone involved in a car crash while delivering for or struck by a DoorDash driver, this data underscores the importance of having a knowledgeable legal team familiar with Arizona’s fault-based insurance laws.
If you’re a delivery driver or another motorist injured in a crash involving a DoorDash vehicle, it’s vital to understand your rights:
Determine liability – Under Arizona’s fault-based insurance laws, the at-fault driver’s insurance may be responsible for damages.
Gather evidence – Obtain police reports, witness statements, photos, and medical documents immediately after the accident occurred.
Seek medical care – Document all injuries sustained, from internal injuries to spinal cord injuries or other severe trauma.
File an insurance claim – Notify your insurer and the driver’s insurance company, but avoid admitting fault until you consult a lawyer.
Track damages – Keep records of medical bills, lost income, vehicle repairs, and any long-term medical treatment.
Consult an attorney – Our auto accident lawyers can help you determine liability, manage communications with insurers, and pursue compensation for your losses.

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
