  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.

Taylor and Motorcycle Accidents

Taylor is a small rural community located in Graham County in southeastern Arizona, positioned along US Route 70 between Safford and the San Carlos Apache Reservation. The area's remote character and winding desert highways create unique hazards for motorcycle riders. US 70, which runs directly through Taylor, is a major corridor that sees steady traffic from commuters, commercial vehicles, and travelers heading toward Phoenix and Scottsdale. The combination of narrow shoulders, elevation changes, and frequent curves makes this route particularly challenging for motorcyclists. Additionally, Taylor's proximity to recreational areas and Apache Lake draws weekend riders seeking scenic routes, increasing motorcycle traffic during peak seasons. When accidents occur on these rural stretches, they often happen at high speeds with limited access to emergency services—a reality that underscores why residents injured in motorcycle accidents need experienced legal representation familiar with Graham County's specific road conditions and liability issues.

Your Legal Rights After a Motorcycle Accident in Taylor

Arizona follows a comparative fault system, meaning you can recover damages even if you share partial responsibility for the accident, as long as you are less than 50 percent at fault. The state allows two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury lawsuit, a deadline that requires prompt action. Recoverable damages include medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and permanent disability if applicable. For Taylor residents, Sher Law Group offers the significant advantage of statewide representation combined with proximity to our Scottsdale office, just over two hours away.
