Las Vegas Car Accident Statistics

The 2023 traffic statistics for Las Vegas offer several critical insights into road safety and accident trends. The city recorded 19,407 vehicle accidents that year. Of these, 11,324 caused at least one injury. Sadly, Las Vegas saw 155 fatalities resulting from car accidents.

Many of these incidents stemmed from negligent driving practices such as excessive speed, failure to yield the right-of-way, and failure to maintain a proper lane. The report also noted a significant number of fatal DUI incidents; 35% of the fatalities involved an impaired driver. 

Additionally, fatal hit-and-run accidents remained a considerable challenge, with over 40% of these cases still unresolved by year-end. These statistics underscore the ongoing need for enhanced traffic safety measures and public awareness campaigns.

Frequent Injuries Resulting from Auto Collisions

Car accidents can result in a variety of serious injuries:

  • Whiplash

    The neck and head suddenly jerk forward and backward due to the impact of a car wreck, causing neck pain, stiffness, and headaches.

  • Broken Bones

    The force of the impact leads to fractures in the arms, legs, ribs, or other bones.

  • Soft Tissue Injuries

    Bruises, sprains, and strains on muscles, tendons, and ligaments, which may cause pain, swelling, and limited mobility.

  • Concussions and Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIs)

    Head injuries range from mild to severe, affecting cognitive function, memory, and overall well-being.

  • Cuts and Abrasions

    Broken glass, debris, or sharp objects can cause cuts and abrasions.

  • Internal Injuries

    Blunt force trauma can damage internal organs, leading to bleeding, organ dysfunction, or other serious complications.

  • Spinal Cord Injuries

    Severe accidents may result in spinal cord damage, leading to paralysis or loss of sensation in certain body parts.

  • Emotional Trauma

    Car accidents can also cause emotional distress, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

We understand that healing from a serious car crash takes time, and we’re ready to take on your legal burden so you can focus on recovering.

Most Common Types of Motor Vehicle Accidents in Las Vegas

Las Vegas, with its bustling streets and heavy tourist traffic, sees many types of motor vehicle accidents. Here are some of the most common:

  • Rear-End Collisions

    These are extremely frequent in Las Vegas due to traffic congestion, distracted driving, and tailgating.

  • Side-Impact (T-Bone) Collisions

    These often occur at intersections when drivers run red lights or fail to yield the right-of-way.

  • Sideswipe Collisions

    Sideswipes are frequent on Las Vegas’s multilane highways, often due to lane changes without proper signaling or distracted driving.

  • Head-On Collisions

    Head-on collisions are often the most severe and can be caused by drunk driving, wrong-way driving, and falling asleep at the wheel.

  • Single-Vehicle Accidents

    Some accidents involve just one vehicle running off the road or hitting an object, often due to speeding, impaired driving, distracted driving, or mechanical failure.

  • Uninsured Motorist Accidents

    Uninsured motorist coverage protects you when you're injured by a driver who doesn't have insurance. We navigate the complexities of these claims, working with your own insurance company to recover compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, and other damages.

    View Uninsured Motorist Accidents

No matter what type of collision, most car accidents are caused by unsafe drivers. When those drivers injure other motorists, they should be held responsible.

Damages Available After a Las Vegas Automobile Accident

After a car accident, you can seek compensation to cover various types of losses:

  • Medical Expenses

    Emergency services, hospital care, surgery, medication, physical therapy, and any ongoing medical treatments related to the injuries from the accident.

  • Lost Wages

    Compensation for lost wages, including loss of earning capacity if your ability to work has been permanently impacted.

  • Property Damage

    The cost to repair or replace your vehicle and any other personal property damaged in the accident.

  • Pain and Suffering

    The physical pain you experience as a result of the accident.

  • Emotional Distress

    Psychological impacts such as anxiety, depression, and PTSD.

  • Loss of Enjoyment

    Distress because you can no longer enjoy hobbies, exercise, and other recreational activities.

After a fatal accident, the victim’s spouse or family may file a wrongful death lawsuit. This allows them to seek compensation for the loss of companionship and support from their loved one, along with funeral expenses, medical bills, and lost income.

How Is Fault Determined in Las Vegas Car Accidents?

Nevada follows a system called modified comparative negligence to determine fault in car accidents. 

Multiple parties, including yourself, might be assigned a percentage of fault for the accident. Your compensation will be reduced by the percentage of fault attributed to you. For example, suppose that you were awarded $100,000 in damages but were found to be 20% at fault. Your final compensation would be $80,000.

If you’re found to be over 50% to blame for the accident, you cannot recover any damages, even if the other driver was also partially at fault.

How Long Do I Have to File a Car Accident Claim in Las Vegas?

In Nevada, you have a limited time to file a car accident injury claim. Here's the breakdown:

  • Personal Injury Claims

    Two years from the date of the accident.

  • Wrongful Death Claims

    Two years from the date of the victim’s death.

  • Property Damage Claims

    Three years from the date of the accident.

It takes time to build a case against the other driver. Waiting too long to contact a lawyer could make it harder to win your case.

FAQ

  • How much does it cost to hire a Las Vegas car accident lawyer?

    Typically, hiring an experienced car accident lawyer does not involve upfront fees. Most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency basis, which means that they only get paid if you do. The attorney will then take a percentage of the settlement or award.

  • What if my insurance claim is denied after an accident?

    If your insurance claim is denied, you can consult a car accident lawyer to review the denial and potentially appeal it. Your attorney can examine your insurance policy, investigate the reason for the denial, and advocate on your behalf.

  • What should I tell the insurance company after an auto accident?

    Provide your insurance company with factual information about the incident, but avoid admitting fault or giving a detailed statement without consulting a personal injury lawyer. It's crucial to speak with an attorney to protect your rights and interests.

  • What if I'm partly at fault for my accident?

    In Nevada, if you are partly at fault for an accident, you can still recover damages as long as you are not more than 50% responsible. Your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault under Nevada's modified comparative negligence rule.
