High-Speed Collisions in New Mexico

A major car accident can happen at almost any time, but there is always an increased risk when a driver speeds. That’s because going too fast makes it take a lot longer to stop, which makes it harder for drivers to deal with sudden risks on the road. The most current crash data shows that high-speed accidents, which kill thousands of people every year across the country, make up almost 25 percent of all fatal car accidents.
