Rear end accidents are one of the most frequently occurring kinds of accidents. Being rear ended can entail anything from minor fender benders with barely any damage to the car and nothing more than a bump or bruise to major accidents with severe vehicle damage and debilitating injuries such as herniated discs and head trauma.

Rear end collisions are often due to a driver acting negligently, not paying attention, or not leaving enough space between them and the car ahead. These kinds of accidents usually catch the impacted drivers off guard, resulting in them jolting in surprise, and injuring themselves in the process. If you have been injured in a rear end collision, you need to contact a Las Vegas car accident lawyer immediately to ensure that you receive the compensation that you deserve.

• Distracted Driving (texting, navigation, passengers)
• Speeding (or not leaving enough following distance)
• Inclement Weather Conditions (or otherwise hazardous roadways)
