High-Speed Crashes in New Mexico

Albuquerque, NM - Collision with Injuries at I-40 & Louisiana Blvd

A driver's ability to effectively respond to hazards on the road is significantly impaired when they engage in speeding, creating a perilous situation that can drastically increase the likelihood of a catastrophic crash. When vehicles travel at high speeds, the time available for drivers to react to sudden changes or obstacles is severely reduced. This reduced reaction time can lead to disastrous consequences, making it difficult for drivers to maneuver safely in critical situations, such as when a pedestrian unexpectedly crosses the street or when another vehicle makes an abrupt stop.

The statistics surrounding speeding and its impact on road safety are alarming. Over the past two decades, approximately one-third of road deaths reported in the United States in the past 20 years have been related to speeding, and over 10,000 individuals lose their lives in high-speed crashes annually. Speeding is incredibly common in New Mexico. According to statistics, about 35 percent of the state's fatal collisions involve speeding motorists. These reckless drivers should be held accountable for the consequences of a catastrophic vehicle collision because they pose an active hazard to other drivers.
