High-Speed Collisions in Nevada
It is a fact of life that you are at greater risk of being seriously hurt in a crash when speeding. It is known to intensify the severity of resulting injuries. Traveling at excessive speeds makes it much harder to control a motor vehicle while also greatly increasing stopping distance. In the United States in 2021, drivers who were speeding were involved in about 29 percent of fatal collisions. A total of 12,330 people lost their lives in high-speed collisions in that year, or almost 33 deaths every day. In the event of a serious car accident, drivers who speed or participate in other hazardous driving practices should be held accountable. This is often only possible when you pursue a personal injury claim with the help of a trained lawyer.
You are never completely safe when sharing the road with another driver, and no matter how safe of a drive you are, you can still be hurt in a crash. In addition to suffering severe injuries, crash victims may also sustain large financial losses that make life challenging. Damages like escalating medical costs, missed wages, and auto repairs can be difficult to manage. By filing a personal injury claim, you can pursue justice and fight to receive the compensation you are entitled to. Working with a trained lawyer will give you the best opportunity to get the maximum value for your case.
