Nevada Distracted Driving Crashes
Reckless driving can take many forms. Statistics show that a shocking number of car accidents in Nevada involve intoxicated motorists, making up nearly 43 percent of reported crashes in the state on average. However, distracted driving is another common factor in serious collisions across the state. When a driver does not pay attention to the road, they are at risk of doing something that can potentially cause a serious crash. Almost 37 percent of deadly Nevada car crashes involve lane departures, and you can travel the length of a football field in the time it takes to send a text while traveling at highway speeds.
