New Mexico Speeding-Related Accidents

New Mexico has some of the highest rates of deadly speeding-related crashes in the nation, with speeding being noted in approximately 37 percent of the state’s yearly recorded traffic fatalities. Across the state, there are thought to be 115 speeding-related fatalities for every 100 fatal auto accidents, and tens of thousands of deaths are caused by speeding drivers annually across the country. Over one-third of traffic-related fatalities over the previous 20 years involved speeding motorists. When you speed, you become an active threat to everyone on the road, including yourself. It is much more difficult to maintain control over a motor vehicle when speeding, and the distance needed to come to a full stop is increased significantly.
