New Mexico Speeding-Related Crashes

Drivers who speed have a higher chance of losing control of their cars and causing catastrophic collisions. In more than 35 percent of fatal collisions in New Mexico, speeding drivers are at fault. The severity of the problem of speeding in the Land of Enchantment can be seen by the fact that over 370 fatalities from high-speed crashes were recorded in the state over a recent two-year period. Every year, thousands of people across are killed by speeding drivers. By filing a personal injury claim, drivers who speed and cause catastrophic collisions may be held accountable for any injuries and losses that arise.
