Freeway Off-Ramp Crash Trends in Clark County

Interchange points like the S Rainbow Blvd off-ramp on CC-215 E are often the site of injury-causing accidents in the Las Vegas metro area. With a steady flow of merging traffic, braking vehicles, and varied speeds, these zones are particularly susceptible to collisions—especially during mid-afternoon hours when both local and commuter drivers are on the road.

Injury collisions near freeway exits frequently result from sudden lane changes, distracted driving, or misjudged braking distances. According to regional traffic data, Clark County experiences a high number of such crashes along its beltway system, especially at intersections where off-ramp traffic interacts with surface streets.

To improve safety, local officials recommend reducing speed well before approaching an off-ramp, maintaining situational awareness, and yielding appropriately to merging or slowing traffic. These actions are critical in preventing rear-end and side-impact collisions that can cause serious harm.

If you or someone you know has been injured in a crash, reach out to Local Accident Reports for assistance.

Intersection Safety Concerns in the Las Vegas Metro Area

Accidents at intersections like S Jones Blvd and W Twain Ave reflect common hazards in fast-developing urban corridors. These areas experience high traffic volumes, frequent lane changes, and a mix of local and commuter drivers, all of which can raise the risk of collisions—especially during evening hours.

According to recent statistics from the Nevada Department of Transportation, intersection-related crashes account for a significant portion of injury incidents in Clark County. Contributing factors often include speeding, failing to yield, and distracted driving, all of which become more dangerous when visibility is reduced after dark.

City officials have emphasized the importance of enhanced traffic signaling and intersection design improvements, particularly in high-activity zones like this one. However, safe driving habits remain critical to preventing injury crashes, regardless of infrastructure upgrades.

After any serious crash, individuals should immediately seek medical attention, ensure the incident is properly documented, and consult professionals to guide them through insurance or legal processes.

NOTES:

RENO, Nev. (KOLO) - A new filing from the Public Utilities Commission of Nevada accuses NV Energy of overcharging 80,000 customers by $17 million.

The filing accuses the power company of overcharging misclassified residential customers as early as 2001.

It further alleges that, between April 1, 2017 and April 1, 2024, NV Energy’s misclassification resulted in around 60,000 customers being overcharged. The company also disclosed that it overcharged around 20,000 unidentified multi-family accounts for an undisclosed amount.

The PUCN alleges that the errors occurred because it misclassified multi-family residences as single-family residences. During the period of April 2017 to April 2024, the company undercharged around 5,400 customers across 2,400 premises $2.5 million because it misclassified single-family residences as multi-family residences.

The PUCN alleges that NV Energy only provided refunds to a portion of customers affected, and that those who did get them had refunds capped at six months, amounting to less than $2 million in total refunds.

NV Energy says it has not identified a known cause of each misclassification, but that employees made these errors “at the point of build and design” when entering the misclassification into its systems.

The filing further accuses NV Energy of using a non-applicable rule to cap the refunds at six months, saying they unilaterally determined that a southern-specific rule applied to all customers regardless of location. They say that because of that rule, NV Energy issued six months of refunds to customers affected by the misclassification between April and October 2024.

In a statement on the filing, NV Energy released this statement to KOLO 8 News Now:

“NV Energy is aware of the request from the regulatory operations staff of the Public Utilities Commission of Nevada to review the recent refunds NV Energy provided to customers. NV Energy will respond appropriately through the regulatory process. NV Energy discovered a number of customers who were charged the wrong rate for their property type, informed the Public Utilities Commission staff of the issue and has notified those customers and started issuing refunds to customers that were overcharged. NV Energy has not sought repayment from those customers that were undercharged.”

NV Energy is under fire after state regulators revealed the utility overcharged tens of thousands of Nevadans in excess of $17 million.

In a filing made to the Public Utilities Commission on Tuesday, it was revealed NV Energy overcharged 60,000 “misclassified residential customers” over $17 million between April 1, 2017, and April 1, 2024 — but it has happened as early as 2001. Additionally, around 20,000 customers’ “multi-family accounts” were overcharged for an undisclosed amount.

Attorneys Jared Wigginton and Donald Lomoljo opened an investigation into NV Energy to address residential rate misclassifications, where the utility would classify a single-family home as multifamily, or vice versa, resulting in over or undercharging customers.

According to the PUC filing, NV Energy overcharged 59,939 customers across 22,101 households $17,009,429.70 by classifying them as a single-family residence, rather than multifamily. It also found NV Energy undercharged 5,438 customers across 2,451 households $2,579,744.35 because they misclassified single-family residences as multifamily residences.

“NV Energy discovered a number of customers who were charged the wrong rate for their property type, informed the Public Utilities Commission staff of the issue and has notified those customers and started issuing refunds to customers that were overcharged,” said an NV Energy spokesperson. “NV Energy has not sought repayment from those customers that were undercharged.”

Eight different organizations — Nevada Conservation League; Faith in Action Nevada; Caring, Helping and Restoring Lives; Faith Organizing Alliance; Solar United Neighbors; Chispa Nevada; Moms Clean Air Force Nevada; New Day Nevada — issued a press release admonishing NV Energy for the overcharging.

“This egregious negligence raises major concerns about the leadership and integrity of the state’s monopoly electric utility,” said the organizations. “NV Energy has not explained how these mass overcharges happened, if Nevadans were notified of these overcharges, or why customers were not promptly refunded.”

Additionally, the organizations say NV Energy lobbied in bad faith against AB 452 and other bills in regard to utilities, due to not informing the commission about overcharging customers.

Some refunds were issued

Refunds were only provided to a portion of the affected households and were capped at six months, resulting in less than $2 million reimbursed to customers. These discrepancies happened at “point of build and design,” when NV Energy would enter customers into their billing system.

“For over two decades, NV Energy’s uncorrected misclassifications of residential premises have caused substantial harm to tens of thousands of customers,” stated the filing. “Upon discovering its mistakes, NV Energy decided not to disclose its misconduct to the Commission. Instead, NV Energy unilaterally implemented an improper remedy.”

According to the filing, NV Energy was improperly using Rule 2(K)(3), a rule that only applies to Southern Nevada, unlawfully in order to provide only partial refunds. The rule that capped refunds at six months only applies to customers who chose the wrong rate classification, not the power company, said the filing.

Wigginton and Lomoljo are now calling for a formal investigation from the commission into NV Energy’s billing practices, to determine whether their overcharging was unlawful, their use of Rule 2(K)(3) was unlawul and if they are legally obligated to refund over charged customers.

“NV Energy’s limited refunds triggered public outcry and even garnered the attention of the Legislature,” said the filing.

The legislative attention mentioned is bill AB 452, which would require utility companies to reimbuse for certain overcharges with interest, revising PUCN filings and “requiring the Public Utilities Commission of Nevada to open one or more investigatory dockets to examine certain matters relating to a potential cost-sharing adjustment mechanism.” Currently, the bill has passed through Assembly and is waiting on a vote from the Senate

NV Energy is actively lobbying against the bill.
