Las Vegas Car Crashes
Nevada car crashes happen frequently. Per year, tens of thousands of accidents are reported in the Silver State that cause serious injuries and even fatalities. Sadly, around 700 people lose their lives annually in auto collisions throughout the state. Across the country, approximately 40,000 individuals are killed per year in traffic accidents. These crashes are mostly preventable and caused by the actions of negligent drivers. Negligent driving comes in countless forms, however, the most common include:
- Intoxication
- Distraction
- Fatigue
- Speeding
Some statistics related to driver negligence in the United States include the fact that driver intoxication takes the lives of over 10,000 people per year while speeding also ends the lives of approximately 11,000 annually. Additionally, fatigued driving is behind more than 100,000 traffic collisions that happen every year in the United States and driver distraction causes more than 400,000 crashes per year.
