AI Summary

  • Amends Arizona Revised Statutes Section 33-1551 to limit liability for property owners, lessees, and occupants to cases involving willful, malicious, or grossly negligent conduct that directly causes injury to recreational or educational users.

  • Recreational and educational users assume risks of their activities and must exercise reasonable care; property owners are not liable for unknown conditions on land.

  • Installing safety warnings or making safety improvements does not create liability, nor does failing to maintain such warnings or improvements if no other basis for liability exists.

  • Applies liability protections to governmental entities, nongovernmental organizations, and persons providing maintenance, improvements, or support for land open to public recreational or educational use.

  • Users of another's land remain liable for any damage they cause to the property, livestock, or crops while on that land; the law does not relieve users of their obligation to exercise care or liability for attractive nuisances.
