Injury Car Accidents in Las Vegas
Per reports from local authorities, Nevada claims an average of 300 deadly motor vehicle accidents every year. Moreover, Nevada ranks near the middle in the number of total vehicle deaths in comparison to other states. Unfortunately, the number of car crash fatalities statewide increased nearly 4% from 2019 to 2020, despite less traffic on the roads during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Clearly, these motor vehicle accidents are an unfortunately common fact of life in Nevada. This is especially true on the busy, packed streets of Las Vegas. When it comes to fatal accidents and pedestrian incidents across the state, victims and families are particularly vulnerable in the aftermath.
After a car accident, those affected often cope with financial difficulties, long-term physical issues, and serious emotional trauma. Sadly, when victims succumb to their injuries, family members must endure devastating consequences. Oftentimes, families pay expensive medical and funerary costs in the aftermath.
