High-Speed Collisions in New Mexico
Drivers are more likely to speed when they feel comfortable, and residents of New Mexico have a track record of exceeding the speed limit. Unfortunately, because of this careless behavior, everyone has a higher chance of getting hurt in a serious car accident. Speeding drivers are less able to control their cars and stop in time to prevent a potentially life-changing accident. Every year, tens of thousands of Americans are killed in high-speed crashes. Statistics show that speeding drivers account for more than one-quarter of all traffic fatalities in New Mexico. Speeding is a serious threat to everyone on the road, and drivers who choose to exceed the speed limit and cause a severe collision should be held accountable for their actions.
