Multi-Vehicle Crashes in Arizona

Data from the Arizona Department of Transportation indicates that in 2018 alone, nearly 55,000 accidents and more than 1,000 deaths occurred, peaking in a year-over-year increase in severe accidents. There’s more traffic on Arizona highways now that the spring months are here, leading to a greater danger of these hazardous wrecks.
