Bike riding is a fun and healthy way to get around in Phoenix. In fact, because of the pleasant climate and proximity to large universities, bicycling can often be the preferred travel method, especially for students.
Bicycle Accidents
Unfortunately, there are also many hazards bicyclists face in the form of negligent drivers and dangerous roadways. Motorists do not consciously look out for bicyclists and therefore, fail to yield right-of-way. In addition, because of the relatively little protection.
Bike riders who are injured by negligent drivers may pursue financial compensation for the crash by filing a personal injury claim in Arizona. A successful civil lawsuit could result in compensation for damages such as medical expenses, past and future suffering, lost wages and rehabilitation costs. In cases where a bicyclist is killed, the victim’s family may pursue financial compensation by filing a wrongful death claim.
