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.

Superior and Bicycle Accidents

Located in Pinal County between Phoenix and Globe, Superior is a rural mining community with a population under 3,000 residents. The town sits along U.S. Route 60, a major highway corridor that connects the Phoenix metropolitan area to central Arizona's mining regions. While Superior's quiet character and lower population density might suggest safer roads, the reality is quite different. Route 60 and local roads serving the area experience steady traffic from commuters, freight trucks, and through-traffic heading to and from mining operations. Cyclists in Superior face unique hazards: narrow shoulders, limited dedicated bike infrastructure, and drivers unfamiliar with sharing the road with bicyclists. The surrounding terrain and rural setting mean that accidents here often occur at higher speeds, with greater distances to medical facilities, making injuries more severe. Sher Law Group understands these specific risks and has represented injured cyclists throughout Pinal County who were hit by distracted or negligent drivers.

Your Legal Rights After a Bicycle Accident in Superior

Arizona recognizes the rights of cyclists as road users with full protections under state law. If you've been injured in a bicycle accident caused by another person's negligence, you have the right to recover damages for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and permanent disability. Arizona follows a comparative fault standard, meaning you may still recover damages even if you bear some responsibility for the accident, as long as you are less than 50 percent at fault. You have two years from the date of your accident to file a personal injury lawsuit, a deadline that is strictly enforced by Arizona courts. For Superior residents, Sher Law Group offers the advantage of serving all of Pinal County and statewide, with convenient access to our Scottsdale office for consultations and case management.
