Speeding-Related Crashes in New Mexico

The state was recently listed as having the highest annual number of fatal auto accidents caused by speeding. In fact, 37% of all fatal accidents in New Mexico are due to excess speed. Moreover, New Mexico has one of the highest rates of fatal crashes caused by speeding in the country, and in the state, there are around 115 speeding fatalities for every 100 fatal crashes.

Although insurance adjusters are responsible for paying claims to vehicle accident victims, their true goal is to give victims the least amount of money possible. They will do every effort to reduce your profit margin. They will not think twice about taking advantage of those who are unsure of how much compensation they should receive or who do not have a Belen car accident attorney on their side.

Many accident victims are tempted to accept the lowball offers made by aggressive insurance adjusters as away after they submit a claim. This is why handling your claim on your own is never a wise idea. Simply keep in mind that while this is a one-of-a-kind situation for you, the insurance adjuster is only going about his or her business as usual. Your New Mexico auto accident lawyer's phone number should be the only information you ever need to give to an insurance adjuster.
