High-Speed Collisions in Nevada
In the state of Nevada, drivers speed on a daily basis. Tens of thousands of people lose their lives in speeding-related crashes in the United States each year. Around 30 road fatalities per day or more than 26 percent of all traffic fatalities, are caused by speeding drivers. Speeding decreases your ability to handle your car, and greatly increases the time it takes to stop completely, while also magnifying the severity of any resulting injuries. It should come as no surprise that speeding is a major contributing cause of fatal auto accidents in Nevada and across the country. After a catastrophic car accident, it is critical that you are prepared to vigorously pursue a claim for compensation with the assistance of an experienced attorney.
