By M. Alvarado · May 8, 2026 · 8 min read

The Loop 101/Loop 202 interchange in Chandler sits at one of the East Valley's heaviest convergence points. Crash data from ADOT shows a sustained climb in serious-injury collisions through this junction since 2023.

The most common crash type at this interchange is the high-speed lane-change collision during the eastbound merge — a pattern that creates particularly contested liability disputes.

Readers researching counsel after a Loop 101/202 crash should weight trial experience and accident-reconstruction resources heavily. See our Chandler ranking for firms that meet those criteria.
