Reno, NV (July 27, 2024) - At least one person suffered injuries following a traffic accident in the Reno area on Friday, July 26. Early that morning around 11:31 a.m., the collision took place at the corner of N. Virginia Street and N. McCarran Boulevard. There were confirmed injuries at the scene, and emergency crews were quickly dispatched in order to render the necessary medical aid.
Ambulances were available to transport the injured parties to local hospitals for further treatment. At this time, the extent and number of the resulting damages have not been determined. The vehicles involved in the crash sustained significant damages, and the area was blocked for several hours. Tow trucks were needed to clear the site of resulting debris and reopen the roadway to outside traffic. No further information on the crash is currently available. However, local law enforcement officials are handling the ongoing accident investigation.
Our thoughts are with the injured victims and their families at this time. We hope for their full recovery.
Nevada Distracted Driving Crashes
You can never control what another driver does behind the wheel. Driver distraction is on the rise across the country. Over nine people are killed by distracted driving in the United States each day, and nearly 90 percent of recorded car crashes are the result of human error. Distracted driving is becoming one of the main causes of major car accidents, according to statistics. You could drive a football field's length at highway speeds in the time it takes to send a text, and distracted driving claims more than 3,000 lives each year on American roads. If you or someone close to you is seriously hurt by a reckless driver, you can pursue a claim for compensation by working closely with a trained legal team.
