Nevada Car Accidents
The majority of Nevadans drive every day, and the roads can be quite dangerous. According to statistics, the road is becoming more and more dangerous every year. One of the worst years on Nevadan roadways in recent memory was 2022. The Nevada Department of Public Safety (NDPS) reports that there were 352 fatal car crashes in the state that year, accounting for 382 fatalities. Approximately four percent of these fatal crashes occurred in Clark County. Car wrecks will remain the state's greatest source of death and serious injury.
