Car Wrecks in New Mexico

New Mexico has a high rate of deadly car crashes. In 2022, there were 466 recorded traffic deaths in the state. Alcohol-related arrests are also high in the state, and it should come as no surprise that drunk drivers were involved in almost 36 percent of fatal collisions in New Mexico that year. With 143 recorded fatalities, Bernalillo County had the highest number of deadly collisions in the state. Vehicle crashes can have a variety of common causes, but in order to pursue a compensation claim, you should work with an experienced attorney to maximize your recovery. 

There is always a chance of a collision any time you drive a car, and reckless driving causes injuries on New Mexico roads almost every day.
