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.

Kearny and Bicycle Accidents

Kearny, Arizona sits in Pinal County approximately 60 miles southeast of Phoenix, positioned along the US Route 60 corridor that connects the state's interior mining communities to the Valley of the Sun. This rural-suburban setting creates unique hazards for cyclists. The combination of limited bike infrastructure, heavy truck traffic traveling to and from mining operations, and drivers unfamiliar with sharing the road with cyclists makes Kearny a higher-risk environment for bicycle accidents. Many residents and visitors underestimate the dangers posed by commercial vehicles and seasonal tourist traffic on highways like US-60, particularly during early morning and evening commutes when visibility decreases. The area's spread-out nature also means cyclists often travel longer distances on busier roads, increasing their exposure to distracted or negligent drivers.

Your Legal Rights After a Bicycle Accident in Kearny

Arizona law protects bicycle accident victims under the state's comparative fault system, meaning you can recover damages even if you bear partial responsibility for the accident—as long as you're not more than 50 percent at fault. You have two years from the date of your accident to file a personal injury lawsuit, a critical deadline that applies regardless of where in Arizona your injury occurred. Recoverable damages include medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and permanent disability if applicable.
