Why Las Vegas has so Many Accidents
With the combination of alcohol and driving, Las Vegas tops the charts for accidents. With over 8,000 DUI arrests every year,
Clark County has its share of automobile accidents and fatalities. In addition, Las Vegas has gridlock streets with stoplights posted every mile, as well as the heavy use of cell phones in automobiles. Consequently, this all equates to negligent driving and reckless car crashes.

Motor Vehicle Accidents (M.V.A.'s)
By far the most common accidents are motor vehicle collisions. Known as MVA’s or motor vehicular accidents, more people die each year in motor vehicle accidents than have died in U.S. wars in the past 100 years! Drunk driving accounts for a large portion of these fatalities on Las Vegas highways.

Previous clients have suffered from hazardous and sometimes even fatal drunk driving accidents. Often, the drunk driver will leave the scene, resulting in even more charges after the accident. Not only do drunks cause direct damage, their paths can be very destructive. Power poles, construction signs, pick-up trucks, and other vehicles that are used to maintain highways and freeways often become targets for the impaired. Additionally, police, Nevada Highway Patrol and often pedestrians become the victims of drunk driving accidents.

Pedestrian accidents with cars are very crippling. Every year the statistics get worse. Las Vegas has one of the highest incidents of pedestrian accidents due to the large volume of walking traffic on the sidewalks and crosswalks of the roads. Pedestrians walking or running are at a great risk of accident, usually without a form of recovery! Drunks normally do not have insurance coverage; consequently, many victims feel there is no way to seek recourse.

Call our Las Vegas Firm today if you were hit by a car and need representation. The Law offices of Benson & Bingham will check every avenue of revenue to ensure your rights are protected and met.

Insurance in Nevada

Vehicle: Under Nevada Law, a driver must maintain minimal liability insurance coverage in the amount of $15,000. This hardly provides coverage for medical bills, loss of wages, and pain and suffering. Uninsured / Under-insurance coverage is not required, nor is medical payments covered in an accident.. Contact Benson & Bingham today for a free insurance evaluation to make sure you are protected before you talk to your insurance agent. Golf carts and other recreational activities are normally not covered on an automobile insurance policy.

Minor and Adults: Nevada law distinguishes between minors and adults. Parents are liable for the acts of their children up to $10,000 in certain circumstances.
