Auto Accidents in New Mexico

Driving can be dangerous, and most of us have to do it on a daily basis. For many people living in New Mexico, major auto accidents are a tragic reality. Statistics show that a car crash is reported in the state almost every 12 minutes, and an injury from a crash occurs every 26 minutes. Less than one percent of crashes in the state result in fatalities, while over 30% end in injuries, according to the most recent data. Because the state has some of the worst drivers in the country, it tops the country in collisions caused by distracted, speeding, and inebriated drivers.
