The most recent crash statistics for the state show that between 2017 and 2019, speeding drivers were involved in 370 fatal crashes. High-speed crashes in New Mexico accounted for over 35 percent of all traffic fatalities. There are several reasons why speeding raises your chance of a catastrophic collision, but two of the most important ones are the potential for you to lose control of your automobile and the distance it takes to come to a full stop.
