Speeding-related Accidents in New Mexico

There is always a higher chance of getting into a car accident when you exceed the speed limit.

According to the state’s most recent crash statistics, there were 370 fatal crashes involving speeding drivers during a recent two-year study. In New Mexico, almost 35 percent of all road fatalities were caused by high-speed collisions. There are a number of reasons why speeding increases your risk of a serious accident, but the possibility of losing control of your vehicle and the time it takes to fully stop are two of the most significant.
