Car Accidents in New Mexico
Car accidents are often devastating. Unfortunately, these are the cause of tens of thousands of accidental injuries in our state each year. Far too often, car crashes are reported in New Mexico due to driver negligence. Some of the leading factors include:
- Speeding: Driving beyond the posted speed limit or exceeding the safe speed for current road conditions significantly raises the likelihood of collisions.
- Impaired Driving: Operating a vehicle impaired by alcohol or drugs can affect a driver’s coordination, judgment, and reaction time. This makes automobile collisions more likely to take place.
- Aggressive Driving: Aggressive driving behaviors like tailgating, road rage, and reckless lane changes increase the risk of rear-end collisions and other road accidents.
