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 car accidents.

  • 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 car 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.

Parker and Car Accidents

Parker, Arizona sits in La Paz County along the Colorado River, roughly 140 miles northwest of Phoenix and distinctly removed from the urban density of Scottsdale and the Valley. This remote location, combined with Parker's position as a gateway community to the Colorado River recreation area, means that Highway 95 carries significant traffic from both local residents and out-of-state visitors heading to boating, fishing, and camping destinations. The combination of rural highways, seasonal tourism spikes, and drivers unfamiliar with local road conditions creates a perfect storm for serious vehicle collisions. Desert driving presents unique hazards—heat-related mechanical failures, reduced visibility from dust storms, and long stretches of highway where drivers may become fatigued—all contributing to the types of accidents that leave Parker residents facing unexpected medical bills and vehicle damage.

Your Legal Rights After a Car Accident in Parker

Arizona follows a comparative fault system, meaning you can recover damages even if you bear partial responsibility for the accident, as long as you are not more than fifty percent at fault. You have two years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury lawsuit under Arizona law. Recoverable damages include medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and property damage to your vehicle. Parker residents injured in car accidents should understand that insurance companies often prioritize their own bottom line over fair compensation, which is why having experienced legal representation matters. Sher Law Group serves clients throughout Arizona, including Parker and La Paz County, and handles claims in the local courts where your case may be filed. Understanding your rights early after an accident can make the difference between a quick but unfair settlement and the full recovery you deserve.
