When the Vail Lanes Are Expected to Reopen

The Arizona Department of Transportation said the westbound lanes were not affected by the crash. Officials have not given a timeline for reopening the eastbound lanes. Drivers were urged to expect delays and to use other routes. Road conditions are posted on the department's traveler information service, which can also be reached by phone at 511.

Weather, light and road conditions are noted in every serious crash investigation. That is standard practice and does not mean any of them played a part.

How we checked it

The commentary set apart from the reporting is reviewed before it is published. Each contributor is a practising attorney who approved the words attributed to them.

Affected by an accident like this?

Here is what people in Arizona usually need, in the order it comes up.

  1. Emergency care. Emergency rooms must check and stabilize you, even if you can't pay. The bill comes later.

  2. Your vehicle. Tow yards usually charge for every day a towed vehicle sits there.

  3. Crash report. The crash report is usually ready a few weeks after the crash, and you can still get it later.

  4. Hospital bills. Most hospitals have a program that cuts bills for people with low income, and you can apply months after the first bill.

  5. Insurance offer. You can turn down the insurer's first offer and ask for more.
