Las Vegas, NV (Dec 20, 2025) – A pedestrian was critically injured on Saturday evening, December 20, after being struck by a car in the northeast Las Vegas valley.
According to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD), the incident occurred shortly before 5:30 p.m. on Judson Avenue, just east of Marian Drive. Preliminary evidence indicates that a man was walking within the roadway when a Toyota Corolla struck him.
The pedestrian, whose identity has not yet been released, was treated at the scene by emergency medical personnel before being transported to a local hospital. Officials have described his injuries as life-threatening.
The driver of the Toyota Corolla remained at the scene and cooperated with the investigation.
Our thoughts are with the injured individual and his family during this difficult time.
Pedestrian-vehicle collisions often involve complex liability issues, particularly when they occur outside of marked crosswalks. In Nevada, drivers have a legal duty to exercise “due care” to avoid hitting anyone on foot, regardless of the pedestrian’s location.
Under Nevada’s modified comparative negligence laws, an injured pedestrian may still be eligible for compensation even if they were partially at fault, provided their responsibility does not exceed 50%. Recoverable damages typically include medical expenses, long-term rehabilitation costs, and lost wages. Because insurance companies often attempt to shift blame onto the pedestrian, securing physical evidence and police reports is a critical step in a personal injury claim.
