Nevada Speeding-related Accidents
Speed is one of the most important aspects of road safety. It can make the difference between a minor collision and one that changes someone's life. In 2021 alone, speeding drivers claimed the lives of 12,330 people on American roads, accounting for more than 29 percent of all traffic deaths. This is an average of about 33 deaths every day. An estimated one-third of all traffic deaths reported in the country during the last 20 years have been linked to speeding. If there is a significant auto accident, drivers who speed should be held accountable for any injuries and other damages. This means that to receive the money you are entitled to and ensure a full recovery, you should work with an experienced attorney.
The majority of Nevadans drive daily. Unfortunately, because people drive for extended periods, a major auto accident can happen at any time.
