New Mexico Distracted Driving Accidents
One of the main factors contributing to catastrophic collisions is distracted driving. Although texting and driving is the most well-known example, there are many other examples of driver distraction that are common on New Mexico roads, like eating, using a phone, or even just chatting with a passenger. The state is experiencing a crisis of distracted driving, with 21,894 crashes involving distracted drivers in the last year alone. Distracted drivers cause the deaths of over 3,000 people annually across the country, with approximately nine fatalities occurring each day. The latest findings show that distracted drivers will take their eyes off the road for at least 10 percent of the time.
