High-Speed Collisions in New Mexico

New Mexico drivers have a reputation for operating cars recklessly. According to statistical data, driving under the influence, driving while distracted, and speeding are the main reasons for severe collisions in the state. Speeding is particularly prevalent on the state’s roadways. Over 10,000 people nationally lose their lives in high-speed collisions every year, and every day, about 33 individuals are killed by speeding drivers. Speeding increases stopping distance and significantly degrades a driver’s ability to control their vehicle, two potentially fatal combo factors that lead to many fatal crashes in New Mexico. Following a serious collision, injured parties should pursue a claim for compensation in collaboration with an experienced attorney.
