Police Identify Passenger Killed in Las Vegas DUI Accident

According to Metro Police, this suspected fatal Las Vegas DUI accident occurred on October 30 at approximately 2:45 a.m. when 24-year-old Ricardo Orozco-Garcia of Las Vegas was driving his Nissan with Herman Morales, 26, also of Las Vegas, riding as a passenger.  At that point, the driver lost control of his vehicle on the Paradise/Maryland interconnect at Woodwinds Way just west of Interstate 215 between Robindale Road and Windmill Lane.  As a result of this loss of control, the vehicle ran off the road and eventually slammed into a block wall.  The passenger was killed at the scene.

Nevada Car Accident Statistics

First and foremost, we'd like to offer our sincere condolences to the family and friends of the man who was killed.  Losing a life so suddenly and violently is always tragic, and receiving this news had to be extremely traumatic for the family members.  In addition, this suspected Las Vegas DUI accident will now become part of the overall statistics regarding Nevada car accidents.  Every year, approximately 400 people are killed in these crashes, and almost one-third of fatal Nevada car accidents list alcohol as a factor.

Las Vegas Wrongful Death Lawyers

Nevada law places a legal duty of care on drivers for his or her passengers.  If the driver in this suspected Las Vegas DUI accident had been drinking, then this duty was breached.  Therefore, it's possible that the family of the man who was killed could file a Nevada wrongful death lawsuit, and if such a lawsuit was filed and was successful it could lead to damages that compensate the family for their numerous forms of loss.
