Several People Injured When Vehicle Hits Chinese Tour Bus in Moapa Car Accident

Written by Las Vegas Accident Lawyers Friday, 24 June 2011 13:57

People in Nevada who drive regularly are definitely used to seeing tour buses on the roads at any given time.  However, when a vehicle this large attempts an illegal maneuver, it can be extremely difficult for other motorists to anticipate such a scenario.  While the investigation is only beginning, the facts that have been revealed are quite troubling with regards to a Moapa car accident that involved a Chinese tour bus and a vehicle that left several people injured, one critically.

According to the authorities, this Moapa car accident occurred yesterday morning just after 7 a.m. when a Chinese tour bus carrying 41 passengers attempted what's alleged to be an illegal U-turn on Interstate 15 near Moapa.  The bus was moving down the interstate when it suddenly attempted to make the U-turn at a center median.  The female driver of a red Camaro then rear-ended the bus, and eight bus passengers were injured.  In addition, the driver of the Camaro was critically injured.  Reports also indicate that the U.S. Asia Casino Tours bus had its operational privileges revoked recently by the federal government.

Nevada Car Accident Statistics

First and foremost, we'd like to offer our sincere hope that the people who were injured in this Moapa car accident are able to survive the harm they have suffered.  We also hope that the investigation yields a just result.  In addition, this crash will now become part of the overall statistics regarding Nevada car accidents.  Every year, almost 400 people are killed in these crashes and thousands of people are injured.

Nevada Car Accident Lawyers

If the available facts are accurate, this Moapa car accident could lead to several different forms of liability for the bus driver and the busing company.  If those who were injured in this crash decide to file Nevada personal injury lawsuits and these claims are returned in favor of the plaintiffs, they could recover damages that compensate them for their medical costs, their lost income and their pain and suffering.

Study Shows Nevada Drivers Among the Least Knowledgeable In the United States

Written by Las Vegas Accident Lawyers Wednesday, 15 June 2011 13:22

Safe driving clearly involves motorists understanding the relevant traffic laws that apply to any traffic situation, and a lack of knowledge of these laws only increases the number of car accidents that will occur.  When people wonder why so many Nevada car accidents occur, one of the potential answers could be that drivers in the state rank among the worst in the United States when it comes to knowledge of traffic laws.  This fact comes from an annual study that was performed by GMAC insurance.

According to the study, Nevada ranks number 42 out of the 50 states and the District of Columbia when it comes to knowing the traffic laws that govern their driving.  The study consisted of testing more than 5,000 drivers between the ages of 16 and 65, and providing them with 20 questions from their state's written driving exam.  Nevada drivers scored an average of 75.7 percent, which was down from the average state score from last year that stood at 76.2 percent. 

Nevada Car Accident Statistics

Clearly, this is a troubling result for all of the drivers of Nevada, as the less knowledgeable drivers are as a whole, the more danger every motorist will encounter regardless of his or her level of understanding of the laws that govern this mode of travel.  While no direct link has yet been established, it's quite possible that this overall lack of knowledge could contribute to the number of Nevada car accident statistics.  Every year, nearly 400 people are killed in these crashes across the state.

Clearly, a lack of knowledge of the Nevada traffic laws is neither an excuse nor a defense when a person who was injured in a Las Vegas car accident files a Nevada personal injury lawsuit in response.  The law expects drivers to adhere to these rules regardless of whether they understood them or not.  If someone who has been injured files this type of legal action in response to a crash, that plaintiff could recover damages that compensate them for their medical costs, their lost income and their pain and suffering.

If you or someone you love has been injured in a crash, you need to seek the help of Las Vegas car accident lawyers who have been holding those responsible for this type of harm accountable for many years.  Contact Jack Bernstein & Associates today to schedule a free initial consultation.

Written by Las Vegas Accident Lawyers Monday, 30 May 2011 10:24

Memorial Day Weekend is always a big one in Las Vegas when it comes to visitors and overall activity.  Unfortunately, it's also usually a big weekend for Las Vegas car accidents as people cram onto the roads in enormous numbers to either come visit the city or to leave and visit somewhere else.  Sadly, the holiday weekend got off to a bad start on Friday when a man was critically injured in a Las Vegas rollover accident.  The crash remains under investigation.

According to the authorities, this Las Vegas car accident occurred on Friday at noon on Buffalo Drive at the intersection with Sunset Road.  A 26-year-old man was driving a Mazda minivan in a northbound direction on Buffalo Drive.  When he approached the intersection with Sunset Road, the 52-year-old driver of a Chevrolet came through the intersection from Sunset and collided with the minivan, causing it to roll over.  The driver of the Mazda was rushed to University Medical Center with critical injuries.

Nevada Car Accident Statistics

First and foremost, we'd like to offer our hope that the man who was critically injured in this Las Vegas rollover accident is able to survive the injuries he has suffered and recover from them quickly.  In addition, this Las Vegas car accident will now become part of the overall statistics regarding Nevada car accidents.  Every year, thousands of these crashes occur leading to nearly as many injuries, and nearly 400 people are killed as a result of these collisions.

Las Vegas Car Accident Lawyers

If the available facts are accurate and the driver of the Chevrolet was at fault for this Las Vegas car accident, then it's possible that the injured man could file a Nevada personal injury lawsuit in response.  If such a lawsuit is filed and it's successful, it could lead to an award of damages that compensates the man for his medical costs, his lost income and his pain and suffering.

One Killed in Nevada Car Accident When Tractor Trailer Hits Parked Car on Highway

Written by Las Vegas Accident Lawyers Wednesday, 25 May 2011 14:32

Drivers need to constantly be aware of just about anything that could arise as they head down the road.  Basically, they need to expect the unexpected and they need to be in a position to deal with surprises.  While it's too early to know exactly what occurred early this morning, what is known is that one person was killed in a Nevada car accident when a tractor trailer slammed into a car that was parked off the side of a highway.  Police are still investigating the situation.

According to the authorities, this fatal Nevada car accident occurred at approximately 5 a.m. this morning when the unidentified driver of a tractor trailer was headed down U.S. Highway 93 near Coyote Springs.  It appears that a smaller vehicle had been parked along the side of the road, and after the collision that parked vehicle burst into flames.  No word was given as to how many people were inside the vehicle, but one person was confirmed dead as a result of the crash.

Nevada Car Accident Statistics

First and foremost, we'd like to offer our most sincere condolences to the family and friends of the unidentified person who was killed.  His or her family is about to receive the type of news that no one should ever have to endure.  In addition, this Nevada car accident will now become part of the overall statistics regarding these types of crashes that occur statewide.  Every year, almost 400 people are killed in these collisions somewhere in Nevada.

Nevada Wrongful Death Lawyers

Clearly, more information would be needed before any determination of fault could be made with regards to this fatal Nevada car accident.  However, if the tractor trailer driver was at fault, it could lead to the filing of a Nevada wrongful death lawsuit that's filed by the family of the person who was killed.  If such a lawsuit is filed and it's successful, the family could be awarded damages that compensate the family for their lost income and their loss of companionship.

If you have lost someone you love in a crash, you need to seek the help of Nevada wrongful death lawyers who have been fighting successfully on behalf of grieving families for many years.  Contact Jack Bernstein & Associates today to schedule a free initial consultation.
