Distracted Driving Accidents in New Mexico

When operating a motor vehicle, all drivers have a responsibility to pay attention to the road. Sadly, a lot of people in New Mexico do not. Across the state, distracted driving is becoming more prevalent in major crashes. Every year, distracted driving results in more than 3,000 fatalities and numerous injuries across the nation. You can travel the length of a football field in the time it takes to send a single text, which is more than enough to result in a catastrophic car crash. When operating a vehicle, you should always focus on the road. In the event of a catastrophic collision, those who fail to drive carefully should face consequences.
