High-Speed Collisions in New Mexico

Exceeding the speed limit significantly raises the risk of a serious collision. Many drivers in New Mexico still speed on the state’s roads and highways, despite the clear risks of doing so. A two-year study recently revealed that there were 370 fatal crashes involving speeding drivers in the state.  High-speed collisions account for about 35 percent of all traffic fatalities across the Land of Enchantment. A driver’s ability to control their vehicle and avoid unexpected collisions is impaired when speeding, making it more likely to cause a serious car accident. If a negligent motorist seriously injures you or a loved one, you may be able to pursue lost compensation with the help of a skilled lawyer.
