High-Speed Collisions in New Mexico

When a driver feels at ease in a certain place, they are more likely to speed, and New Mexico residents have a history of going over the speed limit. However, everyone is more likely to get hurt on the road as a result of this reckless behavior. Speeding drivers have a reduced ability to control their vehicles and come to a stop quickly enough to prevent a serious collision. Tens of thousands of Americans lose their lives in high-speed crashes each year, and during the previous 20 years, speeding has been linked to almost one-third of all road fatalities in the nation. In 2020, around 35 percent of New Mexico’s road fatalities were caused by excessive speeding.

Drivers who intentionally act recklessly on the road endanger not just other people but also themselves. This may be seen as a breach of duty in the event of a crash, and this is the foundational aspect of any personal injury claim. It is your responsibility to demonstrate that the person at fault behaved in a way that a reasonable person would not have in the same situation.
