Do you like to speed? Many of us do. Almost 40%, in fact, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. To quote, 39% of drivers “enjoy the feeling of speed.” Well, the thrill aside, there can be some unhappy consequences to speeding– such as receiving a Las Vegas Traffic Ticket, hiked insurance rates, and in even more grave situations: an accident. A recent study conducted by a third party organization took statistics from all 50 states in order to see what the average fines were associated with various Traffic Tickets. The sample driver was a 35 year old man with good credit and no previous accidents over the past five years. Here are the findings: 1. Speeding in a School Zone Average Fine: starts around $200-$500 with additional costs for higher speeds. Average Insurance Hike: almost 19% 2. Littering From a Vehicle Average Fine: anywhere between $100-$1000 for the first offense. Average Insurance Hike: about 11% 3. Reckless Driving This is where things get tricky… and expensive. Here are some details for Nevada. The punishment for reckless driving in Nevada includes eight (8) demerit points added to your drivers’ license as well as possible high fines and incarceration. Misdemeanor reckless driving charges are brought in cases where no death or injury resulted: for a first offense, $250 to $1,000, for a second offense, $1,000 to $1,500, or for a third offense, $1,500 to $2,000. Felony Reckless Driving: A driver may be charged with felony reckless driving in Nevada if prosecutors believe that the driver’s recklessness was the “proximate cause” of the death or substantial bodily harm of someone else. It is...
Children and teens who were brought to the United States illegally by their parents may no longer have to suffer the consequences of their parents’ choices. Up until recently, Latino youths were not allowed to apply for Nevada Driver’s Licenses due to the fact that they were ‘undocumented aliens.’ However, a new order is being set in place that will make it easier for these youths to find work, get into schools, and, of course, drive. President Obama has set into motion new federal guidelines that halts the deportation of these youths and allows them to apply for work permits. As of now, California, Georgia, and Oregon are the only states that allow these youths to apply for licenses. Mississippi and Arizona, on the other hand, have passed strict laws that prevent these individuals from becoming licensed by the state. In Nevada, those who qualify by the new federal guidelines, will not be able to become permanent legal residents, however, they will be able to lead more ‘livable’ lives here in the states. To be eligible, individuals must be under 31 years old, have come to the U.S. before their 16th birthday, have graduated or are attending school, and have been in the U.S. for five years.
