Si usted es un pasajero lesionado en un accidente automovilístico, tiene derecho a buscar una compensación por lesiones personales, aunque no estuviera conduciendo. Puede presentar un reclamo contra el conductor culpable, ya sea el conductor de otro vehículo o con el que viajaba.
Debido a que Arizona sigue un sistema de fallas comparativas, puede recuperar los daños de varios conductores si más de uno comparte la responsabilidad del accidente.
También puede estar cubierto por pólizas sin seguro (UM) o de automovilista con seguro insuficiente (UIM), ya sea a través del conductor del automóvil en el que viajaba o de su propia póliza de seguro. Estas coberturas se aplican cuando el conductor culpable no tiene suficiente seguro para pagar sus lesiones.
