Pedestrian accidents in Glendale, AZ often result from:
Driver negligence, including distracted driving, speeding, and failure to yield at traffic lights or crosswalks.
Poorly marked crosswalks, malfunctioning traffic signals, or limited pedestrian safety infrastructure.
Pedestrians struck by vehicles outside of designated crosswalks or in low-visibility areas.
Insurance complications that delay or deny valid injury claims while victims face physical pain, rehabilitation costs, lost income, and emotional distress.
Data from the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) shows that statewide traffic fatalities dropped to 1,228 in 2024, the second consecutive year of decline, but pedestrians remain among the most vulnerable roadway users. The ADOT 2023 Motor Vehicle Crash Facts report confirms that while total crash fatalities decreased slightly, pedestrian deaths and serious injuries continue to represent a significant portion of Arizona’s collisions.
In its Vulnerable Road User Safety Assessment, ADOT identified that urban communities, including Glendale and the greater Phoenix metro area, account for most pedestrian crashes due to dense traffic, busy intersections, and frequent pedestrian activity near commercial corridors.
According to the Governors Highway Safety Association (GHSA), Arizona had an estimated pedestrian fatality rate of 3.6 deaths per 100,000 residents in 2024, among the highest in the nation. This underscores the danger pedestrians face when crossing busy Glendale routes such as Grand Avenue, 59th Avenue, and Camelback Road.
The City of Glendale, located in Maricopa County, remains part of Arizona’s high-risk urban roadway network. While city-specific pedestrian fatality data are not separately published, regional analyses confirm that metropolitan areas like Glendale consistently experience elevated rates of severe pedestrian injuries and deaths.
Together, these public-agency findings show that pedestrian accidents happen most often in urban settings where factors such as driver negligence, distracted driving, and limited pedestrian infrastructure increase the risk of serious harm.
If you’ve been injured in a Glendale pedestrian accident, you may have a pedestrian accident claim against a negligent driver under Arizona law. Your rights may include seeking compensation for:
Medical costs and medical expenses (emergency care, hospital stays, physical therapy, rehabilitation costs, and medical devices).
Lost wages or lost income when serious injuries or catastrophic injuries prevent you from working.
Emotional distress, mental suffering, and permanent impairment due to traumatic brain or spinal cord injuries.
Property damage involving personal items affected at the accident scene.
The legal process begins with an official police report, securing witness statements, photographing the scene, and obtaining the negligent driver’s insurance information. A pedestrian accident attorney can manage these steps and file a pedestrian accident lawsuit if needed. Because Arizona imposes strict legal deadlines, acting quickly is essential.
Glendale is more than its roadways, it’s a thriving community.

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
