New Mexico High-Speed Collisions

New Mexican drivers are notorious for driving carelessly, and the state has some of the highest rates of collisions in the country due to distracted driving, speeding, and drunk driving. Speed limits are in place for a reason, and they are intended to make the road safer for everyone. Unfortunately, they don’t work when drivers fail to follow them. Every year, thousands of people are killed in the United States by speeding drivers. According to statistics, speeding has been held responsible for about one-third of all road fatalities reported nationwide over the past 20 years. When you go over the speed limit, you have a higher chance of losing control of your car and suffering severe injuries in an accident.
