Nevada Car Crashes

Car crashes are unfortunately common in Nevada and throughout the United States. Throughout the Silver State, over 70,000 auto accidents are reported annually. Of these accidents, tens of thousands of people sustain injuries and hundreds end up losing their lives. Throughout the nation, car crashes are becoming more and more common, happening more than 6 million times per year. These wrecks end in injuries for about 3 million people annually and take the lives of roughly 40,000 per year. 

Sadly, most of the auto accidents reported in the United States are preventable. The majority of them happen due to the actions of drivers who are intoxicated, distracted, fatigued, or speeding. For example, more than 11,000 people lost their lives in 2022 due to the actions of drivers who were speeding. This is over ¼ of the national accident fatality rate.
