Speeding-Related Accidents in Nevada
In Nevada, speed is a factor in numerous collisions. Speeding drivers are responsible for an alarming number of road fatalities in the United States. In 2021, there were 12,330 fatal crashes, accounting for roughly 29 percent of all road fatalities. This indicates that approximately 33 people lose their lives in speed-related accidents every day. Statistics show that on wet roads, speeding-related fatalities account for about 22 percent of related crashes. Everyone on the road is at risk of suffering a serious injury when they speed. Not only does driving at high speeds raise the possibility of losing control of the car, but it also increases the power of contact in the event of a collision. If a speeding driver injures you or a loved one without cause, an experienced lawyer can help you pursue a successful personal injury lawsuit.
In the event of a car crash, the conduct of a careless driver may result in lifelong injuries.
