High-Speed Collisions in New Mexico
If you speed, you put everyone on the road at risk. Driving at a high speed significantly impairs vehicle control and increases stopping distance, meaning that you are less equipped to react to unexpected traffic threats. Each year, speeding drivers kill over 10,000 individuals, making up over 25 percent of all road fatalities in the nation. Speeding is a factor in more than 30 percent of deadly collisions in the state of New Mexico.
Each car accident case is unique, and your situation will be different than that of another victim. You may experience accident-related damages, and it could be difficult to accurately calculate the damages that relate to your case on your own. Making the most of your case is important to you, and a knowledgeable lawyer can help assess how much your case is worth. You should consult with an experienced lawyer who has handled injury claims successfully in the past to maximize your recovery.
There is too much on the line to gamble with your claim, and the more serious your injuries are, the more likely it is that the insurance company will contest or even deny your claim entirely. If you are not able to get the most out of your case, you can find yourself in a difficult scenario where you have to deal with mounting debt and other costs. This is not the situation you want to be in, and you need to work closely with a skilled lawyer as soon as possible.
