Distracted Driving Accidents in Nevada
Drivers in Nevada are notorious for their careless driving practices, including distracted driving. Engaging in a conversation with a passenger or using the global positioning system (GPS) to navigate can both be considered forms of distracted driving. It can also refer to careless actions like using your phone to view a video on your phone or texting while driving. Almost 10 percent of the time, drivers who display these kinds of activities take their eyes off the road for some period of time, greatly increasing the risk of a crash.
