New Mexico Car Accidents

There is almost always a danger of being involved in a serious auto accident when driving. In the state of New Mexico, collisions remain the primary cause of fatalities and serious injuries. A total of 36,555 auto accidents were reported in the state in 2020. The total number of persons involved in these crashes was 85,742, and there was an injury-causing accident reported in the state every 34 minutes on average, according to the latest crash statistics. Nearly 18 percent of crashes in the state involve a driver fleeing the scene. 

Driving is something that most of us do every single day. We do not usually consider how dangerous it can be. However, we will often see drivers behaving recklessly, swerving in and out of lanes, speeding down the highway or even looking at their phones at extended stoplights. These are all reckless behaviors that can contribute to a serious collision. We all want to think it will never happen, but car crashes are a reality for many residents in New Mexico. You need to be prepared in the event that you or someone close to you is unfairly hurt as a result of the actions of a reckless driver. 

Navigating a personal injury claim is far from easy. In most cases, you will be completely unprepared to protect your legal rights and deal with any legal hurdles as they arise.
