The rules of the road are there to keep drivers, passengers, and pedestrians safe. Drivers who speed may think they have good reason to go above the speed limit. In reality, they can cause serious personal injury or property damage.
While your insurance can help you overcome the damages related to a speeding accident, your coverage may not be enough to get you back on your feet. You can work with a speeding accident lawyer in Tucson to make up the difference. Zanes Law helps you fight for justice in court.
Legal Responses to Speeding Accidents
If you’re the victim of a speeding accident, you don’t have to resign yourself to paying for your losses on your own. Arizona gives you the right to pursue compensation through its civil courts. You can file a legal complaint identifying a liable party and subsequently bring that liable party to court.
Civil complaints will not see any parties involved in your accident arrested. Rather, speeding complaints allow you to begin either negotiating or arguing for compensation in court.

Building Your Speeding Accident Complaint
Tucson, AZ, speeding accident attorneys are here to help you start building your speeding accident complaint. After you tell us about your accident, we can work within Arizona’s roadway legislation to determine how fault might impact your possible compensation. In turn, we can establish liability through at-the-scene evidence.
So long as your complaint establishes a reasonable connection between an allegedly-liable party and your losses, you can take your losses before a judge.
You must submit your complaint within Arizona’s statute of limitations if you want to go to either negotiations or trial, though. A.R.S. § 12-542 allows injured parties to take two years from the day of your accident to submit a complete complaint. If you don’t file your complaint within your applicable deadline, you won’t have the legal backing you need to request compensation.

Comparative Negligence and Speeding Accidents in Arizona
Arizona operates under a comparative negligence statute. This statute is outlined in A.R.S. § 12-2505. Herein, you are permitted to request financial support even if you contributed to the car accident you endured. However, the compensation to which you may be entitled will be reduced based on the percentage of the fault you contributed to the accident.
With this in mind, there is always some value to filing a speeding accident civil suit. You can work with our office to both establish your initial complaint and contest accusations of fault that arise in court.
