Taxi accidents do occur with some frequency in Southern Nevada, given the area's high traffic volume and tourism. Like any other form of transportation, taxi accidents can result in serious injuries to passengers, other motorists, and pedestrians. Taxis are typically insured by commercial insurance policies with significant coverage in the event of an accident.

If you are a passenger in a taxi and the taxi driver is at fault for the accident, you may be able to pursue a claim against the taxi company. Additionally, if you were the driver of another vehicle or a pedestrian and were involved in a crash caused by a taxi, you may also be able to file a claim for damages against the taxi company. If you are a passenger in a taxi and another motorist is responsible for the crash, their insurance may cover your injuries. Under Nevada's comparative negligence laws, you may be able to recover damages from both the taxi driver and the driver of another vehicle if both are partially at fault in an accident involving you as a fault-free passenger.

In Nevada, the statute of limitations for taxi accidents is generally two (2) years. This means that you must file a lawsuit for personal injury arising from a taxi accident within two (2) years from the date of the accident. If you fail to file the lawsuit within this time frame, you may lose your right to seek compensation for your injuries or damages. It’s important to consult with an attorney as soon as possible after a taxi accident to ensure you meet all deadlines and preserve your legal rights. If you were injured while you were a passenger in a taxi vehicle or if you were hit by a taxi driver, a taxi accident lawyer can help you pursue the compensation you deserve.
