Injury Car Crashes in Nevada

Traffic accidents are a common occurrence in the state of Nevada, with thousands reported each day that result in injuries and fatalities.

Auto collisions rank among the top reasons for both loss of life and injury nationwide, with over 6 million accidents occurring annually, injuring around 3 million individuals and claiming approximately 40,000 lives.

Every year, over 60,000 vehicle accidents are recorded in the state of Nevada alone. These accidents result in tens of thousands of injuries and hundreds of deaths. Regrettably, persons who are hurt in vehicle accidents often have to spend a significant amount of time in the hospital, which makes it difficult for them to work or spend time with their loved ones.
