The Grand Canyon State has many attractions for motorcyclists. Thousands of residents and tourists in Arizona use motorcycles to commute to work, get around and visit destinations such as national parks. Unfortunately, many motorcyclists end up with serious and fatal personal injuries in traffic accidents in Arizona every year.
As a driver in Arizona, you might know you have an obligation to stop at the scene and render aid if you get into an auto accident. As a bystander not directly involved who witnessed the car accident, however, you do not have the same responsibility.
Whenever an American citizen receives any kind of substantial windfall, there is an expectation for the U.S. government to come looking for its share through taxation laws. While some things like lottery winnings are absolutely subject to taxation, other types of monetary awards are not.
Motorcyclists in Arizona and around the country may enjoy the freedom and sense of adventure that comes with traveling on two wheels, but they are also far more likely to be killed or injured in a crash than car, pickup truck or SUV drivers.
May is Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month, and motorcyclists who are taking an Arizona road trip might like to learn more about staying safe while on the road. Other motorists also can educate themselves in order to reduce their risk of hitting motorcycles.
