If you were injured in a road rage accident in Las Vegas, you deserve an attorney who will fight aggressively on your behalf. Road rage incidents are among the most dangerous collisions on Nevada roads — and the liable driver should be held fully accountable.
What Is a Road Rage Accident?
Road rage refers to aggressive or violent behavior by a driver stemming from frustration, impatience, or conflict with another driver. Common road rage behaviors that cause accidents include: tailgating at dangerous speeds, brake-checking, cutting off other vehicles, running red lights or stop signs, and in extreme cases, physical confrontations or intentional ramming.
Who Is Liable in a Road Rage Accident?
In most road rage cases, the aggressive driver bears primary liability. Their intentional or reckless conduct goes beyond ordinary negligence — which can open the door to punitive damages in addition to compensatory damages for your injuries, medical bills, and lost wages. Marathon Law Group’s attorneys are experienced in building strong road rage cases that maximize recovery for injured clients.
Nevada Road Rage Laws
Nevada law treats extreme road rage as criminal behavior. Under NRS 484B.130, aggressive driving is a misdemeanor or gross misdemeanor depending on severity. When road rage crosses into assault or battery, criminal charges may follow — which can also support your civil claim for damages.
Common Road Rage Accident Injuries
Road rage collisions often involve high-speed impacts, sudden maneuvers, and multi-vehicle crashes. Injuries we commonly see include: traumatic brain injury, spinal cord damage, broken bones, soft tissue injuries, and severe psychological trauma from the violent nature of the incident.
What to Do After a Road Rage Incident in Las Vegas
If you are the victim of a road rage accident: stay in your vehicle and call 911 immediately, document the other driver’s license plate and vehicle description, take photos at the scene, seek medical attention even if you feel okay, and contact Marathon Law Group before speaking to any insurance company.
