Nevada Distracted Driving Crashes

Distracted driving is a major contributing factor to catastrophic collisions in the state of Nevada. A total of 3,522 people were killed by distracted drivers in the United States in 2021, according to data issued by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). This represents a 12.9 percent increase from 2019 and a nearly 12.1 percent increase from 2020. On Nevada roadways, texting is among the most common forms of distracted driving. According to the National Safety Council (NSC), the rate of drivers involving handheld devices while operating a vehicle increased by an astounding 127 percent in just the past 10 years, from 1.5 percent in 2012 to 3.4 percent in 2021. In order to build a solid case for recovery following a catastrophic crash, injured parties should speak with an experienced attorney.

Following a serious accident, your recovery is crucial. It can be difficult to understand the full extent of your situation and figure out what needs to be done in order to achieve a complete recovery. A serious crash can quickly leave you feeling discouraged and powerless, and many crash victims often feel confused and alone. These emotions get worse when you try to deal with the complicated legal process. The insurance company will try to take advantage of your situation in order to get you to accept a subpar settlement offer. You should consult a lawyer who is ready to uphold your legal rights and get the full value of your case.
