Speeding-Related Crashes in New Mexico

When you speed, you are much more likely to be involved in a crash. Simple physics shows that the impact of a crash will be much greater at high speeds, and drivers are just less able to control their vehicles when speeding. New Mexico drivers have a bad habit of speeding. Statistics show that almost 37 percent of fatal crashes in the state involve high-speed impacts. More than one-third of national roadway fatalities in the past 20 years involved excessive speeds, and speeding is known to mark the difference between a serious crash and a minor fender-bender. More than 10,000 people are killed each year in high-speed collisions nationwide, and it is crucial that you are ready to protect your legal rights if you or someone close to you is hurt by a reckless driver. 

There is only so much you can do to prevent a speeding driver from crashing into you on the road. Your life is in the hands of other drivers every time you hit the road, and many people are hurt and killed in collisions each day across New Mexico. The damages that result from a collision can be life-changing, and you may not be prepared to handle them on your own.
