Attorney Jason A. Harris brings nearly two decades of experience helping bicycle accident victims and injured Arizonans. He’s one of the few attorneys in the state who regularly handles both personal injury and workers’ compensation cases, a dual skill set that’s invaluable in complex accident cases.
Since 2006, Jason has represented clients suffering from severe injuries, including spinal cord injuries, head injuries, and broken bones, as well as families pursuing wrongful death claims. He is known for giving clients direct attention, explaining every step of the legal process, and guiding them toward recovery through strategic advocacy and compassionate counsel.
Mesa’s growing population and year-round sunshine make it ideal for bike riding, but also increase the risk of collisions between cyclists and motor vehicles. Some of the most common causes include:
Distracted driving, including texting or using GPS
Speeding or failing to yield the right-of-way
Drivers making left turns in front of cyclists
Running red lights or stop signs
Poorly maintained roads or debris in bike lanes
Opening car doors (“dooring”) into cyclists’ paths
Limited bike lanes on busy streets
Low visibility during dusk or nighttime
These incidents can cause bicycle accident injuries ranging from road rash to spinal injuries, head injuries, and other serious injuries that require long-term medical treatment and physical therapy.
Recent data from the City of Mesa 2023 Annual Crash Report shows that Mesa recorded 160 bicycle crashes citywide. Nearly three-quarters of those incidents (73.8%) resulted in minor or serious injuries, underscoring the vulnerability of cyclists sharing the road with motor vehicles.
Statewide trends from the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) 2023 Crash Facts reveal 1,379 crashes involving bicyclists across Arizona, a 10.2% decrease in fatalities compared to 2022. Despite that decline, bicyclist crashes continue to represent a significant portion of all personal injury and serious injury cases in the state.
Within the Phoenix metro area, the Maricopa Association of Governments (MAG) Crash Trends in the MAG Region analysis confirms that collisions between vehicles and bicycles remain one of the most persistent non-motorist crash types in Mesa, Tempe, and Scottsdale.
Nationally, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reports that pedalcyclist deaths make up approximately 2.2% of all traffic fatalities in the United States, highlighting the continued need for improved roadway safety and public awareness for cyclists.
If you’ve been injured in a Mesa bicycle accident, knowing your rights is critical:
Seek medical attention immediately: Even if your injuries seem minor, get examined to document your condition. Hidden head injuries or spinal injuries can worsen if untreated.
Gather evidence: Take photos of the accident, property damage, and visible injuries. Collect contact information from witnesses and involved drivers.
Avoid speaking directly to the insurance company: Insurers often attempt to minimize payouts. Let your attorney handle these communications.
Track all medical bills and expenses: Keep copies of receipts for medical treatment, physical therapy, and any out-of-pocket costs.

Harris Injury Law
We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside it.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers).
Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs. There may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to
