Common Causes of Distracted Driving Accidents in Chandler

Many car accident cases in Chandler stem from distracted behaviors behind the wheel. Some of the common causes include:

  • Text messaging or smartphone use while driving

  • Talking on the phone, even hands-free

  • Adjusting navigation, audio, or climate controls

  • Eating, drinking, or reaching for items

  • Engaging with passengers, children, or pets

  • Looking at roadside signs or other external distractions

Distractions that are visual, manual, or cognitive can all slow reaction time, making it harder for drivers to respond to traffic signals, sudden stops, or changing road conditions, especially during Arizona’s monsoon season or heavy evening traffic.

Chandler Distracted Driving Accident Statistics

To understand how serious the problem is in Chandler and across Arizona:

  • The Chandler Police Department launched a dedicated enforcement campaign to combat distracted driving, making more than 1,200 traffic stops and issuing about 600 citations for mobile device use during a three-month period, according to ABC15 Arizona (KNXV).

  • The Maricopa County Attorney’s Office reports that roughly one in four car crashes in Arizona involve driver distraction, emphasizing that even a few seconds of inattention can lead to devastating injuries or fatalities. You can find this data on the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office website.

  • The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) found in its 2023 Arizona Crash Facts Summary that the state experienced more than 119,000 total crashes, including 1,198 fatal collisions. A significant portion of these involved human factors such as driver distraction, speeding, or driving under the influence.

  • Nationally, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reports that distracted driving caused over 3,000 deaths in 2022, and texting or smartphone use can increase crash risk sixfold. These figures are available in the NHTSA Traffic Safety Facts report.

Together, these findings demonstrate that distracted driving continues to threaten Chandler’s busy intersections, including Chandler Boulevard, Arizona Avenue, and the Loop 202, where just a few seconds of inattention can cause catastrophic harm.

Understanding Your Rights After a Distracted Driving Accident in Chandler

If you’ve been hurt in a motor vehicle crash caused by a distracted driver, you have important legal rights under Arizona law:

  • You may file a personal injury claim or accident claim for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages.

  • If a loved one was killed, your family can bring a wrongful death claim.

  • Arizona follows comparative negligence, meaning compensation can be reduced if multiple parties share fault.

  • The statute of limitations for most personal injury actions in Arizona is two years from the date of the accident.

  • Never accept a settlement offer without first seeking legal advice, insurance companies often use statements or police reports to minimize payouts.

Prompt medical attention and proper documentation strengthen your case and ensure your rights are preserved.
