  2. Motorcycle Accidents

In 2019, the Arizona Department of Transportation reported 2,676 motorcycle collisions. Common motorcycle injuries include road rash, broken bones, nerve damage, head injuries, neck injuries, and spinal injuries. Motorcycle collisions often result in a higher likelihood of severe injuries because a motorcycle lacks the protections of a vehicle and differs vastly in weight with the vehicle causing the crash.

    If you were involved in a MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT it is important to 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.
Take photos of the following:
  • Vehicles involved - take photos of different angles and distances of the damage to your vehicle and the vehicle that hit you.
  • Skid marks, or road conditions such as construction signs, etc.
  • Any items in your vehicle that were 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 motorcycle 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.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do after a motorcycle accident in Springerville, Arizona?

Seek medical attention, call the police, document the scene, collect witness information, and do not speak with the other driver’s insurer before consulting a motorcycle accident attorney.

How long do I have to file a motorcycle accident claim in Springerville?

The statute of limitations for motorcycle accident claims is generally two years from the date of the crash.

Can I recover compensation if I was not wearing a helmet during my Springerville motorcycle accident?

Arizona does not require helmets for riders over 18, so not wearing one generally does not bar your recovery. An attorney can address any comparative fault arguments raised by the defense.

Recoverable damages include medical bills, future care, lost wages, pain and suffering, motorcycle repair or replacement, and emotional distress.

What if the driver who hit me in Springerville does not have insurance?

Your own uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage may apply. Sher Law Group can help you pursue every available source of compensation.

Springerville and Motorcycle Accidents

Springerville sits in Apache County in northeastern Arizona, a rural community positioned along U.S. Route 60 between the White Mountains and the high desert plains. This location, roughly 200 miles northeast of Phoenix, makes it a corridor for both local traffic and through-travelers heading toward New Mexico. The combination of winding mountain roads, elevation changes, and seasonal weather conditions creates particular hazards for motorcycle riders. Curves on Highway 60 and nearby state routes demand precision and attention, yet distracted drivers, speed, and poor road conditions frequently lead to serious collisions. Riders in and around Springerville face risks that urban motorcyclists do not—isolated stretches with limited emergency response, sudden weather shifts, and the challenge of sharing narrow roads with commercial trucks and touring vehicles. When an accident occurs, the consequences are often severe due to limited access to immediate trauma care and the inherent vulnerability of motorcycle riders on rural Arizona roads.

Your Legal Rights After a Motorcycle Accident in Springerville

Arizona law holds negligent drivers accountable for injuries they cause to motorcycle riders, even when comparative fault applies. Under Arizona's comparative negligence rule, you can still recover damages if you are less than fifty percent responsible for the accident. Arizona also imposes a two-year statute of limitations on personal injury claims, meaning you must file suit within that window or lose your right to pursue compensation. Recoverable damages include medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and permanent disability or disfigurement. For Springerville residents, this means retaining experienced legal representation quickly matters. Sher Law Group represents motorcycle accident clients throughout Arizona, including Apache County, and we are well-versed in the jurisdiction and courts where your case may be heard. Distance is never a barrier; we handle every detail so you can focus on recovery.
