Reno, NV (June 24, 2024) – On Sunday, June 23, there were reported injuries following a car crash in the Reno area. The accident took place late that evening, around 9:25 p.m., at the crossing of E. Plumb Lane and Interstate 580 SB. At least one person involved in the collision reportedly sustained injuries.
Emergency crews were quickly dispatched in order to render aid to the involved parties. Those requiring further treatment were later transferred to nearby hospitals by ambulance. At this time, no updates on the conditions of the involved parties have been provided. The area was temporarily closed while emergency responders were present. Tow trucks were later sent to remove the resulting debris and reopen the area to outside traffic. An ongoing investigation into the cause of the crash is in progress.
Our thoughts are with the injured victims and their families at this time. We hope for their full recovery.
High-Speed Collisions in Nevada
Road safety plays a significant role in preventing auto accidents. Speed is particularly important because it often determines whether a crash will be minor or cause permanent injuries. A total of 12,330 people died as a result of speeding drivers on American roadways in 2021 alone, making up more than 29 percent of all traffic fatalities that year. This adds up to almost 33 deaths every day on average. Speeding has been connected to around one-third of all deaths reported in the nation during the past 20 years. In the event of an accident, drivers who are speeding should be held liable for any injuries and other losses, and you should contact an experienced attorney who is willing to fight for your full compensation.
Most Nevadans drive on a daily basis. Unfortunately, a serious car accident can occur at any time when people are on the road for extended periods of time. In Nevada, reckless drivers are responsible for a great number of life-changing collisions each year. You should have faith in your ability to make wise choices while you work toward a complete recovery and to maximize your claim, you will need an experienced attorney on your side who can give you the necessary legal counsel.
