There are likely to be far more expenses tied to an accident than just medical expenses. If you are incapable of going to work, you are obligated to receive reimbursement for your suffering alongside any lost pay. In Nevada, the law acts in your stead. Vehicles have to use special care to avoid pedestrians. The information that follows is what Nevada law (NRS 484B.280) stipulates drivers to do:

• Take serious measures to avoid hitting pedestrians.
• To prevent such kinds of crashes, emit an auditory alert by blowing the car’s horn.
• Be vigilant when approaching people walking by:
  • On or near highways, streets, or roads.
  • At or near bus stops or transit stops.
  • In or near school zones or marked/unmarked crosswalks.

Furthermore, Nevada Law (NRS 41.130) allows for compensation in cases where personal injury results from the wrongful act or negligence of another party:

• When any person who is injured through a malicious act, neglect, or default of any other person is entitled to compensation by the person who did the act.Â
• If the individual who created the accident was on the job, the company they work for could be guilty of the damages.
