High-Speed Collisions in Nevada
Speeding can be very dangerous in the event of an accident. In many situations, it can mean the difference between a major accident and a minor crash. Statistics show that a lot of traffic deaths in the United States involve high-speed impacts. About 29 percent of all fatal accidents nationwide in 2021 involved speeding motorists. That year, 12,330 people died in high-speed accidents. That means that every day, drivers who were going too fast killed almost 33 people. About 22 percent of fatal high-speed accidents happen on roads that are wet, and it is true that road conditions can make accidents worse, especially when they happen at high speeds.
