Nevada Car Accidents
One of the riskiest things we do on a daily basis is drive a car. Reno is a rapidly growing city with a large number of drivers on the road and thousands of accidents recorded annually. In the city, there were 237,338 recorded car accidents between 2016 and 2020. Statistics show that 135,789 of these crashes resulted in property damage, while 100,060 of them resulted in injuries. Nearly half of all auto accidents in Nevada are caused by drunk drivers, and car crashes are still the state's leading source of fatalities and serious injuries.
