Not fedex, the drivers are contractors UPS is a better example

  Not all FedEx drivers are contracted, not that using a contracted driver precludes using self-insurance for the vehicle anyways. https://www.insurancejournal.com/news/national/2023/08/16/735581.htm#:~:text=The%20amount%20of%20self%2Dinsurance%20reserves%20FedEx%20sets%20aside%20to%20cover%20claims%20surpassed%20%245%20billion https://www.insurancejournal.com/news/national/2023/08/16/73...

    Yeah, some of them are staff. But the majority are contractors and own the trucks as well.

      Ngl I'm still waiting for delivery trucks that are essentially just mobile sets of parcel delivery boxes that you could schedule to be at your address at completely arbitrary times, unlock the right compartment and collect the package. Then they just need to fill them up with a robot at the warehouse and off they go, zero human shenanigans in the process.
