As a motorist you know the general rules about driving safely. You know that you must watch where you are going, avoid distractions, and follow the speed limit. You know that everyone in your vehicle should always wear a seat belt and that you should avoid acting or reacting with rage against other drivers.
But you may not understand all of the different safety rules that have been set out for drivers in the Arizona law, such ARS 28-729, which sets out rules for driving on streets that are lined for two lanes or more. Drivers are required to remain within the lane they are driving in unless they are passing other vehicles on the roadway. According to this law, drivers are prohibited from driving in the middle lane on a three-lane road unless it is necessary to make a turn or to facilitate overtaking another vehicle.
Arizona Traffic Collision Statistics
Drivers who fail to remain in their proper lane while driving are responsible for nearly 3,250 Arizona traffic collisions each year, according to recent reports by the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT). Nearly 60 of these collisions result in fatalities and an additional near 900 of these accidents result in injuries to the people who are involved. The remaining of these collisions cause only property damage, but this damage is often severe and costly, leaving the victims and the at-fault drivers with significant economic losses.
Who to Call For Help After an Arizona Traffic Collision
An Arizona traffic collision caused by a driver who did not stay in the proper lane can cause serious injuries, and victims should contact a skilled personal injury attorney. The Husband and Wife Law Team helps victims by working out the details of fair settlements to cover the costs of recovery, including replacing lost wages during recovery, taking care of hospital and other medical bills, and for non-economic costs like pain and suffering. Our attorneys will help you understand your case and your rights beginning with a free consultation. For help with your personal injury accident case contact the Breyer Law Offices, P.C.
