Experienced Las Vegas Pedestrian Injury Attorneys
Despite the intense summer heat, Las Vegas continues to draw millions of visitors to the Strip and Downtown areas, where people enjoy walking the bustling sidewalks and streets to take in the sights. Although the city has taken steps to improve pedestrian safety, hundreds of people are still injured or killed each year in traffic-related accidents.
Top Causes of Pedestrian Accidents in Vegas
According to the Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles, pedestrians in Nevada are statistically more likely to be hit and killed by a vehicle than most other cities in the United States. Some of the primary reasons pedestrian accidents occur in Las Vegas are:
Speeding or failing to stop at a red light
Not yielding to pedestrians in intersections or crosswalks
Unattended children darting into a street
Pedestrian Jaywalking
Pedestrians crossing against their signal
Hit and runs are also a frequent issue in this busy city, where the damage sustained to victims of such accidents can result in a lifetime of disability. In instances where pedestrians are struck because of behavior so egregious or abhorrent by the driver, that victim may be eligible to receive both compensatory and punitive damages under state law.
If you feel your claim involves such extraordinarily reckless conduct and warrants an additional award of punitive damages, it’s vital that you speak with a personal injury attorney at Vegas Valley Injury Law right away.
