Bicycle Accidents law in Arizona

Arizona gives cyclists the same rights and duties as drivers (A.R.S. § 28-812), so a Star Valley 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). Most Arizona injury claims must be filed within two years of the incident (A.R.S. § 12-542), and a claim involving a city, county or the state requires a formal notice of claim within 180 days (A.R.S. § 12-821.01). Because Arizona applies pure comparative negligence, an insurer assigning you part of the blame reduces what you recover rather than ending the claim, which is why adjusters raise it early. Consultations are free and there is no fee unless we win.

High-traffic corridors where we frequently see bicycle accidents in Star Valley include SR 260. Serious bicycle accident injury claims arising in Star Valley are generally litigated in the Gila County Superior Court.

Star Valley is a small incorporated town in Gila County just east of Payson, so cases are filed in Gila County Superior Court rather than Maricopa, and a claim against the Town of Star Valley requires a notice of claim within 180 days under A.R.S. § 12-821.01. SR 260 runs through the middle of town and carries recreational traffic from the Valley toward the Rim Country, with heavy weekend and holiday peaks, towed trailers, and RVs. Elevation brings winter ice and summer storms, and elk and deer crossing at dusk are a genuine and recurring cause of serious collisions on unlit stretches with limited shoulder.
