Intersections like E Flamingo Rd and S Sandhill Rd are frequent sites for motor vehicle accidents in urban areas like Las Vegas. High traffic volumes, combined with factors such as distracted driving, speeding, and failure to yield, significantly increase the likelihood of collisions at these locations.
Victims of intersection accidents often face significant challenges, including medical expenses, lost income, and emotional distress. Nevada law allows those injured in such accidents to pursue compensation for damages caused by another party’s negligence. This can include costs related to medical care, property damage, and pain and suffering.
