  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 Willcox, Arizona?

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

Willcox and Motorcycle Accidents

Willcox, located in Cochise County in southeastern Arizona, sits at a crossroads between rural ranching country and the highway corridors that connect Phoenix and the southwestern region. Interstate 10 runs directly through this area, along with U.S. Route 191, making Willcox a common thoroughfare for travelers heading toward Tucson, Phoenix, and beyond. The town's relatively sparse population and rural character mean that roads often have fewer barriers, wider open stretches, and less predictable traffic patterns than urban areas. These conditions, combined with increased motorcycle traffic from riders using Arizona's scenic highways to reach popular destinations, create a particular risk for serious accidents. Motorcycle riders passing through Willcox face hazards ranging from highway speed changes and large vehicle traffic to wildlife crossings and road conditions that demand constant attention. When accidents do occur in this region, the consequences are often severe due to the high speeds involved on interstate routes and the vulnerability inherent to motorcycle riding.

Your Legal Rights After a Motorcycle Accident in Willcox

Arizona follows a comparative fault system, which means you can recover damages even if you bear partial responsibility for the accident, as long as you are less than 51 percent at fault. Motorcycle accident victims can seek compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and permanent disability or disfigurement. You have two years from the date of your accident to file a personal injury claim under Arizona law—a deadline that should be taken seriously to preserve your legal rights.
