Written by Las Vegas Accident Lawyers Friday, 20 May 2011 11:19

Intersections are driving environments that most people encounter every day, but few people consider all of the decisions that must be made correctly and laws that must be followed properly in order to avoid Las Vegas car accidents.  Unfortunately, if even one bad decision is made or one thing goes wrong, what would otherwise be a forgettable situation can immediately turn to disaster.  While there are few details available at this point, something went terribly wrong this morning at a local intersection that took the life of a woman in a North Las Vegas car accident.

According to the authorities, this fatal North Las Vegas car accident occurred at approximately 10:30 a.m. this morning at the intersection of Losee Road and Carey Avenue.  What is known at this point is that two vehicles were involved, that one woman was killed as a result of the collision and that the names of those who were entangled in this North Las Vegas car accident have not yet been released pending notification of the woman's family.  Police are still investigating the situation to determine a cause.
