Nevada Reckless Driving Crashes
Distracted driving has become one of the leading causes of devastating car accidents across the country. Recent studies have found that driver error is involved in over 90 percent of reported crashes, meaning that even the most severe crashes are preventable. There are many examples of careless driving, but two of the most prevalent ones include speeding and driving while distracted. When a driver is distracted, their eyes are off the road around 10 percent of the time, more than enough time to cause a life-changing crash. Over 3,000 people lose their lives to distracted driving-related causes every year, and hundreds of thousands more suffer life-threatening injuries. It is essential that you collaborate with a skilled vehicle accident lawyer in order to be able to hold the careless driver accountable for a serious crash.
