Nevada Car Wrecks

In Nevada, traffic accidents happen all the time. Thousands of accidents are reported daily, a percentage of which result in injuries and even fatalities. Often, these wrecks happen due to drivers’ reckless, careless, and negligent actions. In the past ten years, negligent driving has become a significant issue in the United States, causing millions of vehicle accidents per year. According to information from the NHTSA, over 90% of reported car crashes in the US are caused by driver negligence. So, considering the 6 million accidents that happen each year, we see that negligent driving is a serious problem in our country. 

Sadly, over 40,000 people end up losing their lives annually due to auto accidents that happen in the US. In Nevada alone, more than 60,000 vehicle wrecks happen yearly that take the lives of over 700 people. Those who suffer serious injuries in auto accidents often become stuck in the hospital, unable to work, stacking up expensive medical bills, vehicle repair costs, and more. A time like this would be stressful for anyone, especially if you know that the crash was not your fault.
