Nevada Car Wrecks

The state of Nevada has seen numerous traffic collisions end in injuries and even fatalities over the past decade. The Silver State consistently ranks among the top states in the country with the most fatalities stemming from car accidents. 

Car wrecks occur all the time throughout the United States and across Nevada. Every day, over 17,000 car wrecks are reported in the United States, and, of these crashes, around 7,500 people end up with injuries. Each day, in Nevada, hundreds of traffic collisions occur. Tens of thousands of individuals end up with injuries per year in these wrecks while hundreds lose their lives

Driver distraction is the main reason the majority of accidents take place in the United States. Other common forms of driver negligence include speeding, intoxication, and fatigue. For example, impaired driving is behind over 30% of the national accident fatality rate in the US, while driver distraction causes around 400,000 vehicle collisions per year.
