High-Speed Collisions in New Mexico
It is common knowledge that going over the speed limit dramatically increases the likelihood of a major auto accident. Despite the obvious risks associated with speeding, many New Mexican drivers continue to do so on the state’s roads and highways. According to statistics, a recent two-year study found that there were 370 fatal collisions involving speeding drivers reported throughout the state. Approximately 35 percent of all traffic fatalities in the state are caused by high-speed incidents. Speeding greatly impairs a driver’s ability to control their vehicle and avoid sudden collisions. With the assistance of an experienced attorney, you might be able to seek lost compensation if a careless driver causes serious injury to you or a loved one.
