Distracted Driving Crashes in New Mexico

Every driver on the road has a responsibility to be careful and prevent causing injury to others. Unfortunately, too many people in New Mexico don’t follow what should be a basic rule. Every year, more than 45,000 car accidents happen in New Mexico. Distracted driving is the main cause of many of these accidents. A distracted motorist caused a crash about every 56 minutes that year. In the time it takes to send a text, you can travel the length of a football field, which is more than enough time to cause a major car accident.
