Nevada Car Accidents
2022 was one of the worst years on the state's roads in recent memory, with 382 road fatalities reported throughout the state of Nevada. Tens of thousands of people lose their lives, and over three million are injured in over six million car accidents in the United States each year. Statistics show that car crashes continue to be the leading cause of fatalities and serious injuries in the country, and this is also the case right here in Nevada. Nearly half of all collisions in the Silver State involve drunk or intoxicated drivers, showing just how dangerous it can be to travel in the state. If you or someone close to you is hurt in a crash, you need to be ready to pursue a strong claim for compensation with the help of a trained lawyer.
