Boating Accidents are Common Near Mesa, Arizona<\/h2>\n

Boating is a popular activity in the lakes near Mesa, especially during the summer months. Unfortunately, many people underestimate the dangers that these vessels pose which are similar to cars, trucks, motorcycles, ATVs, and other motor vehicles.<\/p>\n

According to a U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) annual report, 2,678 people sustained injuries in the U.S. in 2021 due to boating accidents, and 610 people lost their lives. Common types of boating accidents that occur include collisions with recreational vessels or fixed objects, flooding\/swamping, grounding, and falling overboard.<\/p>\n

Liability for Negligent Boat Owners, Operators, and Manufacturers<\/h2>\n

Similar to cars and trucks, personal watercrafts have powerful engines that require an experienced operator behind the wheel. In Arizona, a person does not require a boating license to operate a boat. In addition, there is no mandatory boater education course required for boat operators.<\/p>\n

When a person chooses to operate a boat without having an adequate level of skill or knowledge to do so safely, they could face liability for negligence if another person is injured in a boating accident. A person could suffer a spinal injury, traumatic brain injury, or even wrongful death from a boat operator who is reckless, negligent, or unequipped for the complex equipment being used.<\/p>\n

In some instances, it is not only the operator of the boat who is found liable but also the owner. For example, if the owner of a boat knowingly allows an inexperienced operator to drive who is incapable of operating the vessel safely. Product manufacturers may also be held liable if signs of a defective product are discovered during an investigation.<\/p>\n
