Four People Injured in Las Vegas Car Accident in Northeast Valley

Motorcyclist Killed in North Las Vegas Hit-and-Run Accident
6. June 2011
When people hear about Las Vegas hit-and-run accidents, they tend to visualize a collision that is immediately followed by one of the motorists fleeing the scene.

People who drive in Las Vegas tend to understand that pedestrians are a common and in some locations a constant sight.

9. May 2011
It’s quite obvious that every Las Vegas car accident that occurs gives rise to an extreme amount of danger.

When drivers get behind the wheel of a vehicle, they owe a legal duty of care to those around them who could reasonably be expected to be affected by their decisions and perhaps their mistakes.

Drivers of vehicles of all types take on certain legal responsibilities when they get behind the wheel, and one of the most central responsibilities is to avoid conduct that places others, including the driver’s passengers, in situations of unreasonable risk of harm.
