New Mexico Distracted Driving Crashes

Some of the worst drivers in the country can be found in New Mexico. That means even if you obey all traffic laws, accidents can still happen. You have no control over other people’s actions when driving. Driver distraction was the state’s greatest cause of auto accidents in 2018. According to the crash statistics, driving while distracted was a factor in about 21.5 percent of collisions that year that resulted in injuries, 20.3 percent that caused property damage, and 8.3 percent that resulted in fatalities.

There are several factors that can cause a serious collision. It is possible to get involved in an automobile accident and suffer severe injuries any time you are driving down the road. In the event that a careless driver causes injuries to you or a loved one, you must be prepared to defend your legal rights. It is not what you want to be left to handle pursuing a compensation claim by yourself. Instead, you must ensure that you have an experienced attorney on your side to make informed decisions about your recovery. 

Working with a lawyer can benefit you in your pursuit of compensation in several ways. Your attorney will be able to assist you in determining the true worth of your claim.
