Bicycle Accidents law in Arizona

Arizona gives cyclists the same rights and duties as drivers (A.R.S. § 28-812), so a Prescott driver who turns into, doors, or fails to yield to a cyclist can be liable. Drivers must allow at least three feet when passing (A.R.S. § 28-735). Pure comparative negligence (A.R.S. § 12-2505) applies, and you generally have two years to file (A.R.S. § 12-542).

Prescott bicycle accident, frequently asked questions

Do cyclists have the same rights as drivers in Arizona?

Often yes, your uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage can apply when a driver hits you on your bike, especially in a hit-and-run.

Bicycle accidents in Prescott: local context

SR 69’s approach into Prescott and the historic downtown around the courthouse square are common crash points.

High-traffic corridors where we frequently see bicycle accidents in Prescott include SR 69, SR 89, Gurley Street, and Montezuma Street. Serious bicycle accident injury claims arising in Prescott are generally litigated in the Yavapai County Superior Court.

Prescott is in Yavapai County, so cases are filed in Yavapai County Superior Court and a claim against the City of Prescott or Yavapai County requires a notice of claim within 180 days under A.R.S. § 12-821.01. At roughly 5,300 feet, Prescott sees winter snow and ice that rarely factor into Valley cases, and the mountain grades and curves on State Route 89 and State Route 69 produce rollover and run-off-road collisions rather than the intersection crashes common in metro Phoenix. The historic downtown around Courthouse Plaza and Whiskey Row concentrates pedestrian and late-night impaired-driving risk on narrow streets with limited sight lines.

We represent clients across the surrounding communities too, including bicycle accident claims in Sedona and bicycle accident claims in Phoenix.
