High-Speed Collisions in New Mexico

Statistics reveal that the primary causes of major collisions in New Mexico include driving while intoxicated, distracted, and speeding. Unfortunately, speeding is common on the state’s roadways. Many people are killed each year by speeding drivers in the United States. An estimated 30 people are killed daily by speeding drivers nationwide. A driver is less able to control their car and avoid roadway hazards when speeding. This combination has the potential to be fatal and result in catastrophic car crashes. You need to be prepared to take the necessary action to protect your legal rights after a serious auto accident. 

After a catastrophic collision, obtaining compensation involves more than just submitting paperwork. The healing process can be long and challenging.
