Riding a bicycle on roads shared with motor vehicles can result in serious injuries to the cyclist if an accident occurs. A cyclist should always wear a helmet and reflective clothing to help minimize the risk of bicycle accidents.

    If you were involved in a BICYCLE ACCIDENT contact Sher Law group and take the following steps:
  • Contact help immediately if anyone was seriously injured and requires medical attention.
  • Obtain the contact information of the driver that caused the accident, inclusive of a picture of their driver's license and car insurance information.
  • Obtain contact information for any witnesses at the scene.
  • Call the police, ask the officer to provide you with an accident exchange form.
  • Do not admit contributing to the cause of the accident or apologize to anyone involved.
  • Do not speak with the at fault parties insurance company or accept any offer until first contacting a personal injury attorney.
Take photos of the following:
  • Take photos of different angles and distances of the damage to your bicycle and the vehicle that hit you.
  • Skid marks, or road conditions such as construction signs, etc.
  • Any bicycle gear that was damaged as a result of the impact.
If you were injured as a result of the negligent action of another driver, you may be entitled to compensation for the following:
  • Medical bills (past and future)
  • Lost wages (past and future)
  • Pain and suffering
  • Property Damage
  • Permanent Injuries

In Arizona, if you were injured in a bicycle accident you must make a claim for your injuries within two years of the date of the incident. In some instances the deadline to file a claim may differ. For example if a government vehicle caused the crash your claim must be filed within 180 days. It is important to hire an attorney that is familiar with the statute of limitations for your specific case to ensure your claim is filed on time. If legal action is not sought within this time you forfeit your right to sue the negligent driver.

Camp and Bicycle Accidents

Camp, Arizona sits in Gila County in the heart of Arizona's rural interior, positioned along State Route 77 between Globe and Superior. This sparsely populated community lies roughly ninety miles northeast of Phoenix and Scottsdale, making it a gateway area where outdoor recreation and remote mountain terrain intersect with limited infrastructure. The winding roads surrounding Camp, combined with minimal shoulder space and occasional heavy vehicle traffic on the state highway, create hazardous conditions for cyclists. Many riders are drawn to Camp's proximity to natural attractions and scenic routes, but the lack of dedicated bike lanes, inconsistent road maintenance, and driver unfamiliarity with sharing the road with cyclists significantly increase accident risk. When collisions do occur in this rural setting, emergency response times can be longer than in urban areas, making the medical and legal aftermath more complex for injured cyclists and their families.

Your Legal Rights After a Bicycle Accident in Camp

Arizona law protects cyclists as full road users with the same rights as drivers, and Camp residents injured in bicycle accidents can pursue damages for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and permanent disability under Arizona's comparative fault statute. Arizona follows a modified comparative negligence rule, meaning you can recover damages even if you bear some responsibility for the accident, as long as your negligence is not greater than the defendant's. You have two years from the date of your accident to file a personal injury claim under Arizona's statute of limitations, making prompt legal action essential. Sher Law Group serves Camp residents from our Scottsdale office and handles bicycle accident cases throughout Arizona, managing everything from negotiations with insurance companies to courtroom representation if necessary, ensuring that the distance between Camp and Scottsdale never delays your access to experienced legal counsel.
