High-Speed Accidents in New Mexico

On the roads and highways of New Mexico, many drivers have a habit of speeding. The most recent crash statistics available for the state show that there were 370 fatal crashes involving speeding drivers reported across the state in a recent two-year period. High-speed collisions account for about one-third of all traffic fatalities in New Mexico. Speeding raises your chance of a serious accident for several reasons. For one, drivers are more likely to lose control of their vehicles, while also greatly increasing the distance needed to come to a full stop. Not only that but your car’s safety features are not designed to function the same in high-speed impacts, meaning you are at greater risk of suffering serious injuries. A qualified Albuquerque car accident attorney will be able to fight to defend your legal rights.
