High-Speed Collisions in New Mexico

People from New Mexico often go faster than the speed limit. Unfortunately, everyone on the road is at risk when a speeding driver is involved. Speeding makes it harder for drivers to keep control of their cars and stop fast enough to avoid potentially fatal car crashes. Every year, tens of thousands of Americans die in accidents caused by speeding, and statistics show that drivers who exceed the speed limit are responsible for more than 25 percent of all traffic deaths in New Mexico. Speed limits are in place for a reason, and if you are unfairly hurt by a reckless driver, you can work with a talented legal team to pursue a full and fair recovery.
