New Mexico High-Speed Car Accidents

Drivers in New Mexico are known for their careless driving. Based on statistical data, the primary causes of severe crashes in the state include driving under the influence, driving while distracted, and speeding. The state’s roads are filled with speeding motorists. Over 10,000 people countrywide lose their lives in high-speed collisions each year, meaning that drivers who speed cause almost 33 deaths every day. A driver’s ability to control their car is greatly reduced, and stopping distance is increased when speeding, two potentially lethal variables that contribute to a number of fatal crashes in New Mexico. Injured parties should work with a seasoned attorney to make a full recovery after a major collision to pursue a compensation claim.

You need to be sure that you partner with a trained Albuquerque personal injury lawyer as soon as possible to maximize your recovery after a serious car accident. Your ability to recover fully will depend on the steps you take immediately following the collision, and only a respected New Mexico law firm will know exactly what needs to be done to strengthen your claim.
