Tuesday’s crash at E Tropicana Ave and McLeod Dr reflects a broader concern across Las Vegas and Clark County: the frequency of serious traffic collisions at major intersections. With population growth and tourism adding to the congestion on city roadways, intersections like this one have become hotspots for injury accidents—particularly during high-volume commute periods.
