Auto Accidents in New Mexico

Most people in the country agree that New Mexico has some of the worst drivers, and that means it can be dangerous to drive in the state. A report from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) says that the state was placed fifth for driving while impaired, 12th for speeding, and 10th for accidents caused by careless driving. People who are drunk are all over New Mexico’s roads, and every year hundreds of people die in car crashes and thousands more are seriously hurt.
