Phoenix, AZ (April 29, 2022) – A man was killed during a head-on collision on Friday, April 29th near an intersection in Phoenix.

The accident took place at about 4:20 a.m. in the area of Cactus Road and 56th Street when a sedan and an SUV collided head-first with one another.   

The driver of the SUV, 43-year-old Chad Hunt, died at the scene. 

The adult female driver of the sedan is hospitalized in critical condition. 

A third vehicle was damaged in the crash, but the driver was unharmed.

Impairment is not a factor in this accident.

Traffic in the area was diverted due to the investigation.

We would like to offer our deepest condolences to the family of the deceased victim, Mr. Chad Hunt, at this time. Our thoughts are with the injured victims and their families in hopes of a full recovery.

Head-On Accidents in Arizona

The National Highway and Traffic Safety Administration reported that head-on collisions make up about 7% of all car accidents in metropolitan areas and around 13% in rural areas. These accidents occur more frequently in rural locations because roadways are often narrow and poorly lit.

The leading causes of Arizona head-on accidents include:

    • Driving under the influence
    • Speeding
    • Distracted drivers
    • Drowsy drivers
    • Human error
    • Faulty auto parts
    • Insufficient vehicle maintenance

In Arizona, victims who are hurt in traffic accidents are entitled to pursue financial compensation for their damages from whoever is liable for the collision. Being awarded fair compensation, however, will require you to provide compelling proof of negligence. 

A skilled Arizona personal injury attorney car accident lawyer will know the most effective way to create a strong case for maximum recovery if you or a family member is injured.
