Phoenix, AZ (February 4, 2021) – A portion of State Route 51 before Greenway Road closed on Thursday evening after a multi-vehicle crash was reported.
Per reports from the Phoenix Police Department, their initial investigation indicated two cars traveling northbound on the SR 51 collided in the right lanes, causing a rear-end crash near the Greenway Road off-ramp around 5:30 p.m. It appears at least one victim was either treated at the scene or transported to the hospital via ambulance with injuries, though further details on their condition and their identity have not been released.

Multi-Vehicle Accidents in Arizona
Each year, thousands of people in Arizona experience injuries as a result of car accidents. Whether an accident is caused by distracted driving, impaired driving, or any other kind of driver error, victims and their families pay the price. Nearly 55,000 injury accidents occurred across the state in 2018 alone, making it clear that these accidents are an unfortunate reality of life.
Whether it’s expensive medical bills and serious injuries or long-term emotional trauma, victims’ lives may be left in shambles after a crash. However, victims and their families can bring a claim against a negligent driver who caused them harm. If you’ve been injured in an accident, you should speak with an experienced car accident attorney in Arizona about your legal rights as you move forward.
After an Arizona car accident, your phone may start ringing, and when you pick it up, it is a friendly insurance adjuster wanting to speak with you. They sound friendly and they make you think that they care about your interests. They actually may sound reassuring. However, be aware that if an insurance representative asks you to give them a statement, you may not have to do so, and it may actually not be in your best interest. In fact, at ELG, when we represent a client and an adverse insurance company asks us to allow for a recorded statement from our client, 99% of the time the answer is a definitive no!
