After bike crash, Fred Hubbell facing long road to recovery

BACKGROUND

Fred Hubbell, the 2018 Democratic nominee for governor, was hit by a car while riding a bicycle earlier this year in Scottsdale, Ariz.

Hubbell, who will be 68 this week, was riding in the bike lane of a Scottsdale street Feb. 15 when a driver failed to yield before making a right turn on a red light, his wife, Charlotte Hubbell, said.

The former Equitable Life Insurance Co. and Younkers executive spent more than two weeks in a hospital in Scottsdale, where the Hubbells own a home. He underwent multiple surgeries for a broken pelvis.

Two months after the collision, Hubbell is on a long road to recovery.
