Arizona gives cyclists the same rights and duties as drivers (A.R.S. § 28-812), so a Tempe 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).

With ASU and dense nightlife around Mill Avenue, Tempe sees a high rate of pedestrian and bicycle collisions alongside its freeway crashes.
High-traffic corridors where we frequently see bicycle accidents in Tempe include I-10, US 60, Loop 101, Loop 202, and busy surface streets like Mill Avenue and Rural Road. Serious bicycle accident injury claims arising in Tempe are generally litigated in the Maricopa County Superior Court.
Tempe is the densest city in Arizona and its injury pattern reflects that: Arizona State University concentrates pedestrian, bicycle, and scooter traffic around Mill Avenue, Apache Boulevard, and University Drive, and the light rail line runs at street level through the middle of it. Cases are filed in Maricopa County Superior Court, and a claim against the City of Tempe requires a notice of claim within 180 days under A.R.S. § 12-821.01. Mill Avenue’s bar district drives a higher rate of late-night pedestrian and impaired-driving collisions than surrounding cities, and shared e-scooters add a category of claim where liability may involve the rider, a driver, and the scooter operator.
