Nevada Is A Fault State

According to personal injury law, Nevada is considered a “fault state”. This means that once a party has been determined to be guilty of causing the collision and resulting injury, their insurance company is held liable to pay all damages. If the defendant does not have insurance, they will be held personally liable to pay what is owed. Your lawyer will work diligently to gather enough evidence to prove the other party’s guilt.

Comparative Negligence Law

Under comparative negligence law, Nevada allows the injured victim to recover compensation even if they are partially responsible for the collision. It must be proven that one party is more than 50% at fault, thus comparatively more negligent, for the accident to be held liable. The party that is less than 50% at fault will not be required to pay anything.

Statute Of Limitations For Carson City Motorcycle Accident Claims

The statute of limitations for filing a personal injury claim in Nevada is two years from the date the injury was received. In medical malpractice claims, the statute is three years from the date the injury occurred or two years from the date it was discovered.

Common Causes Of Motorcycle Accidents In Henderson

Distracted/Aggressive Driving

Many accidents occur from drivers who are distracted by their phone, the radio, passengers inside the car, road signs and traffic signals, and more. Uber and Lyft drivers may be distracted by their phones as they look ahead to the next job.

Reckless Driving

Reckless driving often occurs in areas with high traffic volume. Drivers may be impatient with slow traffic, behind schedule and rushing to their next stop, or simply distracted and unaware of their speed. Road rage is commonly associated with reckless driving.

Falling Asleep While Driving

Truckers, bus drivers, or taxi drivers who work long hours with little breaks are commonly at fault for fatigue-related accidents. Injuries can be quite severe because the driver has little reaction time while causing the accident. Nevada considers it gross negligence to fall asleep at the wheel.

Speeding

Speeding is one of the most common causes of motorcycle accidents and vehicle collisions, especially in highly populated areas with large volumes of traffic. Either the motorcyclist could have been speeding, or the vehicles around them were speeding and driving negligently.

Poor Weather Conditions

Rain, fog, or other inclement weather can make the roadway very slippery, especially for motorcycles. Low visibility and a higher potential for accidents are likely, especially in sudden, severe weather conditions. It is important to be aware of upcoming weather when driving a motorcycle.

Defective Motorcycle Parts

While most motorcycle accidents are caused by driver negligence, they can also occur as a result of malfunctioning or defective motorcycle parts. A driver may be unaware of a recall, or they may keep their motorcycle in optimal working condition.

Drunk Driver

Make sure your rightsMotorcycle accidents are disproportionately caused by drunk drivers, due to the high number of casinos where alcohol is common. Drunk drivers may not realize they are speeding, distracted, or driving recklessly, and can cause injury or death as a result.
