ADOT releases 2023 traffic statistics, showing slight decline in traffic deaths from 2023

The Arizona Department of Transportation has released data showing the total number of crashes in the state last year, along with trends we’re seeing on the roads.

According to the data, there were more than 122,000 crashes in Arizona in 2023. Of those, nearly 1,200 were deadly and more than 37,000 resulted in injury. Victims most often lost their lives in crashes involving lane departures or high speed, and most commonly occurred in urban areas and on local roads rather than highway systems.

Traffic fatalities have been rising since the mid-2000s, aside from a few years with lower numbers. Data from 2023 shows just slightly fewer deaths than in 2022, but higher than in 2020 and 2021.People on motorcycles were involved in more crashes, resulting in both injury and death, in 2023 than the year before.Read more in the 2023 Arizona Motor Vehicle Crash Facts report here.
