High-Speed Collisions in New Mexico

A speeding driver can cause a serious car accident at any time. It is very common to see New Mexico drivers speeding down the highway and making unsafe lane changes. Over 150 people lost their lives in speed-related crashes in New Mexico in one recent year, and statistics show that high-speed crashes are more common in some counties than in others. There were 36 deadly speeding-related crashes reported in Bernalillo County that year. When a driver breaks the law or speeds and causes a serious collision, they may be held responsible for any resulting injuries and damages by pursuing a personal injury claim with a trained legal team.
