I've been with UPS 4 years now, 2nd year helping out a driver. I was insistent on working with the same driver again this year for the simple things he takes into consideration, but would also prevent accidents from happening.
Pulling up to the curbs so the step out isn't so hard, along with the step back up. Sometimes having to cross the street is unavoidable & before he jumps into the back of the truck to get the next package ready, he lets me know how many cars to expect. "You've got one car, two cars, then you're clear!"
Drivers, regardless of the time they think it takes away from their drop-offs, MUST take that extra moment to take care of the one that's helping them...even if it means a few seconds!
