High-Speed Collisions in New Mexico
There is a reputation among New Mexico drivers for driving carelessly. Some of the highest crash rates in the nation are caused by distracted driving, speeding, and intoxicated driving. Tens of thousands of Americans lose their lives as a result of speeding drivers every year, and during the last twenty years, speeding has been linked to about one-third of all documented road fatalities in the nation. You run a greater chance of losing control of your vehicle and being seriously hurt in a crash when you exceed the speed limit.
Car crashes occur in a matter of seconds, but they can have long-lasting impacts on the lives of innocent victims. After an accident, the majority of victims must pay hefty medical bills to cover their losses, and some may sustain injuries so severe that they are unable to return to their jobs. It can be quite tough to deal with the severe financial difficulties that accident victims and their families may encounter.
Both physical and mental damages are possible following an automobile accident. Your age, overall health, and any prior medical issues are just a few of the factors that will determine how serious your losses will be after a crash. Your emotional pain may manifest as post-traumatic stress disorder, aggressiveness, anger, worry, or hopelessness. Many accident victims are still recovering from their injuries a year or more after the incident because of the difficult rehabilitation process.
