High-Speed Collisions in Nevada
Driving too fast is a dangerous habit that drivers in Nevada do every day. Tens of thousands of people are killed in crashes involving speeding across the country. Every day, about 30 people die on the roads because of drivers who are going too fast. This is more than 26 percent of all traffic deaths. Speeding increases the force of a crash and makes it take longer to stop at a complete stop. Both of these things can make a resulting crash much more severe. Speeding is a major cause of fatal car accidents in Nevada and across the country. Drivers who act carelessly behind the wheel should be held responsible if they cause a serious accident.
