Albuquerque, NM – Major Injury Wreck at Paseo Del Norte & I-25

Albuquerque, NM (October 20, 2024) – On Saturday, October 19, there were confirmed injuries after a car accident in the Albuquerque area. The crash took place that evening around 10:11 p.m. at the corner of Paseo Del Norte and Interstate 25 SB. The injured parties were provided aid by responding paramedics before being transferred to a local hospital for further treatment. 

At this time, the severity and number of the resulting injuries have not been determined. The area was temporarily closed while emergency crews were present, and tow trucks were later dispatched to clear the site of resulting debris and reopen the roadway to outside traffic. An ongoing investigation into the cause of the crash is in the hands of local law enforcement officials.

New Mexico Reckless Driving Crashes

Everybody using the road has a responsibility to be careful behind the wheel, but too many people in New Mexico fail to pay attention to the road as they should. In New Mexico, there are over 45,000 registered car accidents annually, and the bulk of these collisions are caused by distracted drivers, according to statistics. In a recent year, there was one recorded distracted driving collision in the state roughly every 56 minutes. In the time it takes to send a text message, you can travel the length of a football field, which is more than enough time to cause an accident that might change someone’s life. If you or someone close to you is hurt in a car accident, you need to be ready to pursue a strong claim for recovery with the help of a component legal team.
