🔥 4th of July Traffic and Safety Tips in Las Vegas

At Anthem Injury Lawyers, we care deeply about the safety of tourists and locals on our roadways—especially during high-traffic holidays like the 4th of July. Read below for information on traffic and safety tips for Las Vegas and the surrounding areas to keep your summer travel plans safe and fun.

🚗 Expect Congestion on I‑15 & Major Las Vegas Routes

  • Interstate 15 (I‑15 southbound) near the Nevada–California line frequently sees major delays between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. on Sunday, July 6, as travelers return home.

  • Other arterial routes into town, including I‑15 northbound, US‑95, and Lake Mead Blvd, can also flood with traffic from midday onward.

  • Traffic peaks generally between noon and early evening (5–7 p.m.) through Saturday, July 5 & Sunday, July 6 .

⏰ Best Times to Travel

  • Leave early in the morning, ideally before 11 a.m., to avoid the worst snarls.

  • For late returns, departing after 7 p.m. or overnight can significantly ease your journey.

  • Avoid peak travel windows: noon–5 p.m. on July 3, 4 and 10 a.m.–5 p.m. on July 6. Read more on this from CNTraveler.

🌡️ Summer Safety Essentials

  • Triple-digit heat demands heightened vehicle checks: tires, hoses, belts, coolant—and A/C systems should all be in top shape.

  • Pack water, monitor tire pressure, and know how to change a tire—heat increases roadside breakdowns.

  • Don’t leave children or pets in parked cars—even for a minute—as interior temps skyrocket dangerously fast.
