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.

Florence and Bicycle Accidents

Florence, Arizona sits in Pinal County approximately 50 miles south of Phoenix and 60 miles southeast of Scottsdale, positioning it at a rural-to-suburban crossroads along US Route 60. This historic mining town has experienced steady growth in recent years, attracting commuters and residents who travel frequently between Pinal County communities and the greater Phoenix metro area. The combination of increasing traffic volume, agricultural vehicle activity, and the popularity of cycling as both recreation and transportation has created genuine hazards for bicycle riders on Florence's roads. US Route 60, which runs directly through the area, sees significant truck and commercial traffic alongside daily commuters, and many local roads lack dedicated bicycle infrastructure. Rural highways surrounding Florence often have limited shoulders and visibility challenges, making cyclists vulnerable to serious collisions with distracted or speeding drivers who may not anticipate bicycle traffic in these areas.

If you're injured in a bicycle accident in Florence, Arizona law protects your right to seek compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and permanent disability.
