High-Speed Collisions in Nevada
When it comes to crashes, speed matters. It frequently makes the difference between a serious collision and a minor crash. In the United States, 29 percent of traffic fatalities in 2021 were caused by high-speed collisions. In all, 12,330 people died in crashes involving speeding that year. This means nearly 30 people were killed daily in high-speed collisions. In the event of a serious incident, drivers who deliberately drive faster than the speed limit on the road should be held responsible, and that is often only possible when you work closely with a competent legal team.
