High-Speed Collisions in Nevada
Speeding can often mean the difference between a minor crash and one that changes your life. This negligent driving behavior is one of the most common causes of major collisions in Nevada. Speeding not only greatly increases the chance of a car accident, but also makes it more difficult for drivers to maintain control of a car and react quickly to unanticipated road dangers. A total of 396 people died in Nevada in 2022 as a result of speeding drivers, an increase of 2.86 percent over the previous year. Roughly one-third of documented road fatalities over the past 20 years have been associated with speeding. A qualified attorney should assist in holding careless motorists liable when they knowingly endanger other people by neglecting the rules of the road.
