New Mexico Distracted Driving Collisions

There have been more fatal car accidents as a result of the frequency of distracted driving in today's technologically advanced culture. Driver distractions are more prevalent than ever, and most drivers in New Mexico own electronic devices like cell phones and smartwatches that potentially distract them while driving. A total of  3,142 persons lost their lives as a result of distracted driving in 2020. In 2019, distracted driving incidents across the nation resulted in 424,000 injuries and over 3,100 fatalities.

Accident victims are routinely contacted by insurance companies and asked to give an oral or written statement. Severe injuries sustained in a car accident could easily change your life for years to come, and recent vehicle accident victims may exaggerate their injuries since they are still experiencing the effects of the adrenaline, and as a result, a victim in shock can even mistakenly admit fault in a recorded statement. This is just one of many tricks that insurers use to take advantage of those who have grounds for a solid personal injury claim. 

Insurance adjusters frequently begin urging accident victims to accept a rapid, low-value settlement while they are still recovering from their injuries and coming to terms with the accident. Before signing any insurance settlement documents or accepting any money from the insurer, we strongly suggest speaking with a lawyer. You can avoid accepting a settlement offer that is either undervalued or insufficient to completely compensate you for your losses with the right legal aid on your side.
