New Mexico High-Speed Collisions
When you become familiar with an area, you will naturally be more comfortable speeding. This reckless action, though, can make the road dangerous for everyone. Speeding drivers are less able to control their vehicles and stop to prevent a serious collision. Tens of thousands of people are killed each year in high-speed crashes in the United States, and over the past twenty years, speeding has been a factor in nearly one-third of reported traffic fatalities. In a recent year, nearly 35 percent of traffic fatalities in New Mexico involved excess speeds. You may be able to pursue a strong claim for compensation after a life-changing crash by working closely with a trained team of Albuquerque personal injury lawyers.
No matter what type of vehicle you drive or how your accident took place, there is a strong chance you will suffer some degree of injury.
