Car Crashes in New Mexico

It is not unusual to see drivers in New Mexico using their phones while behind the wheel. Alarmingly, a growing number of drivers freely acknowledge using a phone while operating a motor vehicle. The state has one of the highest rates of crashes involving distracted motorists. The results of a recent survey show that distracted driving causes around 40.75 percent of collisions in New Mexico, which is almost five times more than the national average. Driving when intoxicated or inattentive is nearly as deadly as driving in the state as a whole, according to recent studies.
