Hit-and-Run Motorcycle Accidents in Arizona
Hit-and-run crashes pose a serious risk to motorcyclists, who are already among the most vulnerable road users. Phoenix’s busy intersections, such as 46th Avenue and Thomas Road, see frequent collisions due to heavy traffic, driver inattention, and failure to yield. When a driver flees the scene, it not only delays medical assistance for the victim but also complicates the investigation.
Arizona law requires all drivers involved in an accident to remain at the scene and provide aid if necessary. Those injured in hit-and-run accidents may face severe physical injuries, financial burdens, and legal challenges in seeking compensation.
